I don't like the if/unless_blank tags when we could do this with

. . .
What would everyone think about adding this, but altering the default
behavior so that if a page part is blank, it is considered not there.
So <r:if_content part="my_part" allow_blank="false"> would be your use
case to override and <r:if_content part="my_part"> would be the
default where allow_blank is assumed to be true.
The original intent behind if_content was the semantic "does this part
exist?" It's not meant to be something that checks for whitespace.
if_blank seems much more intention revealing (with that goal in mind).
I'm not sure that I see the need for both a new attribute on the
if_content tag and a new if_blank tag, so I favor just the if_blank tag.
