While I'm happy to play along ( I configured my emacs to detect
whitespace) and suspect I may have been a trailing whitespace
contributer, I fear this may be a case where the cure is worse than
the disease.  As we all make commits to fix the trailing whitespaces,
since they are now glaringly ugly in my emacs buffer, I fear we will
see significantly more changesets which are whitespace only, than if
we simply configured our editors to ignore them.
