Yes, and in fact you convinced me that blank lines were ixnay, too, a
while back ;).  When I went back and re-read PEP8 before looking at
seqdb, I noticed that blank lines were mandated.

I could go either way, but I would default to PEP 8 unless you have a
strong opinion.  I think it's nice to have a Python-wide coding
standard as part of the language, and it will simplify discussions with
new developers.
