TeX reads "\startframed[] Why a space? \stopframed"
A linebreak is replaced by a space and spaces at the beginning of
a line are ignored by default. Without the optional []
TeX reads "\startframed Why a space? \stopframed"
The first space is "eaten" by TeX while parsing the macro name.

     \startframed[]%   ignore the space
     Why a space?
     \stopframed

It is the same behaviour as for \startframed{} ...

This is also not correct, you should use:

     \startframed
     This is ok.%
     \stopframed
     \stoptext

Otherwise you'll get a space after the dot.
