Description
This Atom plugin doesn't highlight HTML Handlebars templates quite right. The plugin is overly sensitive to spacing towards the right side of template directives. And templatized JavaScript doesn't highlight template directives right either.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the spacing-sensitive highlighting in HTML Handlebars templates and the incorrect directive highlighting in templatized JavaScript. Trace the plugin's syntax-highlighting rules for both contexts, then verify that directives highlight consistently across spacing variations and in JavaScript templates.
