Could you please rewrite the ebnf without the WhiteSpace?
Whitespaces are normally handles by the lexer and therefore
do not belong to the grammar. Its also better readable without
that bunch of WhiteSpace in there.

I showed your grammar to a friend of mine and he says:

Shouldn't there be WhiteSpaces between ":" and "source"/NamespaceIdentifier?

Is ObjectPath really meant to allow ......foo.bar ?
Or do you mean [ "." ] ObjectIdentifier { "." ObjectIdentifier } [ "." VariableName ]; ?
