Severity: wishlist
Could check for, if not already:
Non compressed doc files, e.g.,
/usr/share/doc/wml/README
And more importantly, trailing whitespace, e.g.,:
perl -wne 'print if /\w$/' /usr/share/doc/wml/README|wc -l
13
Could even check for wasted vertical space: \n\n\n or whatever.

don't see any point in leaving the bug open tagged wontfix.
