Only because there are a lot of files with trailing whitespace inserted
casually and carelessly. If we implemented a policy of stripping it when
we find it, in a short time there would me no more conflicts about the
issue.

That's for sure. As I've said, I've had the hook for taking out the
whitespace for a year and I've been commiting "trimmed" files since back
then. And I'm pretty sure there are other developers who rutinely do
the same. Not a single complain till now, IIRC.
