This approach for triggering will not work, as no such token in master branch of checkstyle.
I think we need here old diff report workflow, that has two configs.

There are cases where this solution becomes opinionated:

For example String... someStr. Do we consider String... as a single type? It is composed of TYPE and ELLIPSIS. Should it be String ... someStr or String... someStr.

Or int/*Some javadoc*/ myNums. Should the space be after the int or after the Javadoc? Some repos seem okay with no space between the two, others have it.

Or C-Style Arrays char someChars[];. These require extra attention, because the [] is part of the char TYPE.

IMO, we should create a new check for square brackets only - similar to GenericWhitespace.

Thanks a lot for analysis. Please create new issue, let's agree on naming, this PR should be linked as justification on new Check.
