Setting <before-dot-space> doesn't produce any effect

Consider the following code:

===========================================================
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage[italian]{babel}
\babelfont[italian]{rm}[Ligatures=TeX,Numbers={Proportional,OldStyle},RawFeature=+calt]{Source Serif Pro}
\usepackage{realscripts}
\usepackage[punct-after=true]{fnpct}
\setfnpct{before-dot-space={1em},before-comma-space={1em}}
\usepackage[perpage,bottom,hang,stable,norule]{footmisc}

\begin{document}

Text\footnote{xxxx}. Other text

Text\footnote{xxxx}, other text

\end{document}

The setting before-comma-space produces its effect, the setting before-dot-space none:.

The before-dot-space issue is due to a typo while setting the package options. The code for before-dot-space actually does the same as before-comma-space. The option definition is:

    before-dot-space      .code:n     =
      \fnpct_set_punctuation_dim:nnn { before } { , } { #1 } ,

while it should be:

    before-dot-space      .code:n     = %         V
      \fnpct_set_punctuation_dim:nnn { before } { . } { #1 } ,

While this isn't fixed, adding

\ExplSyntaxOn
\keys_define:nn { fnpct }
  {
    before-dot-space      .code:n     =
      \fnpct_set_punctuation_dim:nnn { before } { . } { #1 } ,
  }
\ExplSyntaxOff

after loading fnpct does the trick.
