Note that such a "concern" is always relative. If the upside were so great, perhaps risking possible breakage may be warranted. FWIW, I am not a big fan of trailing whitespaces that human writers leave in what they write, either. Because the patch text will be full of lines with trailing whitespaces anyway due to a blank lines in the patch context, however, it does not sound so great an upside to tweak how the paragraphs taken from the notes are inserted. Thanks.
