As matter of fact, ebuild-mode accepts any ASCII whitespace characters (horizontal tab, new line, vertical tab, form feed, carriage return, and space) in KEYWORDS, but will change the line to its canonical format whenever a keyword is updated.

BTW, do package managers allow any Unicode whitespace (like "" ZERO WIDTH SPACE or " " OGHAM SPACE MARK) in places where PMS says "whitespace"? Ulrich
