I'm planning to JIRA this if no one has any counter-arguments.

The current Script implementation collapses script whitespace and eliminates 
line-endings in scripts - even when within a !CDATA.  I believe this is often 
bad and never good, apart from trivial optimization.

Line-ending preservation is necessary for use of // comments.

Whitespace and line-ending preservation are useful for script compiler error 
messages that call out a line and column position of the error.
These positions are meaningless if space has been collapsed and line-endings 
removed.

I happen to be experimenting with using other script languages (especially 
Groovy) for which line endings are meaningful.  You probably don't care about 
that, though!

The fix is easy: in Script.read(), replace both occurrences of getTextTrim() 
with getText().

Any thoughts?
