What was the problem with this again? It is not so much inconsistent
whitepace, it's the absence or presence of whitespace. That's
quite a difference. We have that already
c 4 4 == c4 4 != c44 % first ws significance BAD, second GOOD?
^ ^
I'm quite certain there is a good argument for not not making such
changes--in fact I remember proposing this change about a decade
ago and you talking me out of it :-) --but I don't remember
the reason.
It would be good for the archives too: a good reason
may even hold it back should the veto ever fail ;-)
Jan.
