I'm basically of the same mind. It's not very important to me either
way. I don't use command line clients much (oh and my bash-prompt has
a newline in it anyway...) so I lean slightly toward the "be like
Google and others" side of the fence.

If I understand correctly, Damien's objections have to do with the
interaction between a trailing newline and a potential future
canonical JSON format. He may have a point but we'd likely have to
change other things in the future if we wanted to use that canonical
format anyway. (Or maybe I'm mischaracterizing his old argument...)
