I do like to separate words by a space and paragraphs by a blank line. It makes text easier to read and understand. ;) It's nice to see this getting some development now, but I think we should make a final revision soon, so this doesn't end up in endless discussion. It doesn't need to be perfect. Making it better than it was is good too.
