I did a little more investigation and it looks like information separators have
been included in whitespace since unicode type was first implemented in Python:
guido 11967 Fri Mar 10 22:52:46 2000 +0000: /* Returns 1 for Unicode characters
having the type 'WS', 'B' or 'S',
guido 11967 Fri Mar 10 22:52:46 2000 +0000: 0 otherwise. */
guido 11967 Fri Mar 10 22:52:46 2000 +0000:

_PyUnicode_IsWhitespace(register const Py_UNICODE ch)
