SelectToken() with whitespace in path

Question

I recently upgraded from Json.Net 50r6 to 60r6. Consider the following json:

{
    "room list": {
        "regular": [
            {
                "single": {
                    "beds": 1,
                    "bedtype": "double",
                    "balcony": "no"
                }
            }, {
                "double": {
                    "beds": 2,
                    "bedtype": "double",
                    "balcony": "no"
                }
            }
        ]
    }
}

In 50r6, this code snippet works correctly:

    Dim j As JObject = JObject.Parse(line)

    Dim jt As JToken = j.SelectToken("room list")

In 60r6, I get an error:

"Unexpected character while parsing path: "

Is this a bug? The issue resolves in 60r6 if I change the json and SelectToken() method to "roomlist".

Edit: I also get the same error with SelectToken() if the passed parameter contains a parenthesis.

Change it to:

Dim jt As JToken = j.SelectToken("['room list']")
