So opensmiles folks are mistaken when they say on
http://www.opensmiles.org/spec/open-smiles-4-output.html "The optional
whitespace character and data that follows it are not part of the SMILES
specification".

Whatever, as a programmer I'm really dealing with specifically smiles,
or inchi -- I'm dealing with pybel.Molecule.write(), OBFormat, and
formats section of the docs. There's nothing there about there being a
part of smiles that's "unique ID" in daylight and "trailing garbage"
from dusk till dawn.
