Also, if this really is the case, then the manual needs to be modified. 
Under 8.1, it says

" A timestamp can appear anywhere in the headline or body of an Org tree
entry."

and under 8.3:

"A timestamp may be preceded by special keywords to facilitate planning:"

I can't see anywhere that requires the DEADLINE: keyword to be flush 
against a heading.

There may be some reason for requiring this, but if there is no good 
reason, I would like to see it changed to be more flexible.
