>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: C++ Broker
>    Affects Versions: 0.28

> The selector parser in the C++ broker treats empty selectors oddly:
> If the selector is a completely empty string : "" then the selector is treated as if it was always true. However if the selector only contains white space : " " then this treated as a parse error.
> These 2 cases are for all visible user purposes the same selector and so should have the same behaviour.
> Probably the most logical behaviour is to make both these cases act as if the selector was always true so that they are equivalent to the selector being entirely absent.
