As to the whitespace _before_ the '#', we can just pick one and leave the choice to users' editor, which they have to resort to anyway for even trivial things like fixing typos. I am fine to defer the choice between HT and SP to Ralph as the person in the driver seat, As to the whitespace _after_ the '#', I would say we have obligation to the users to be consistent with other codepaths that we already write our own comments. "# " is the only sensible choice of the default there, and we can allow other styles as I outlined in a separate message if we wanted to.
