I have a question about this. It seems to me that adding the whitespace there improves the consistency of the code base, and I thought that it was allowed to make those changes if there are tangent to other meaningful changes done in that area. If even that is not allowed, then does that mean that such whitespace nits in the code base can never be fixed? I am not willing to argue over that change, I am just trying to understand.
I usually only fix whitespace issues when I'm already changing something else on that line; I like to keep a patch specific to what it's actually fixing. For other whitespace issues I'd put them in a separate patch.
But other people may feel differently about this question. Jason
