Templates should be just that: A form that the user fills out, and forms
have blanks. If people are attached to not having extra whitespace in the
editor, they can simply clean up their templates.

Added test with editor adding even more whitespace.

Thanks for rebasing the patch and adding the test! I've run the whole
test suite on Linux, and all tests pass for me (including the added
one).

Thanks, both.  The updated log message explains _why_ this change is a
good thing very well.

I'd avoid "echo -e" which is not portable, though.
