Right now is a really bad time to do that; what it will mostly accomplish
is to break back-patching of doc fixes for little benefit.

ack. As I said, it's a proposal and I'm not too attached to it.
Glad it sparked some discussions though.

That said, I don't fully buy this argument: diff is very simple. Merge conflicts during backporting will be trivial to fix, although a bit more annoying.
 
There is work afoot to convert the documentation to xml.  If that
succeeds, it'd make sense to strip trailing spaces (and start enforcing
that in .gitattributes) when we do that, since it'll be a back-patch
breakpoint anyway.  But right now the PITA factor outweighs the benefit.

What is the ETA for this work to be complete (or fail and be abandoned)?
