Alternatively, if the WG has decided to define
UTF-8 whitespace and strip it from cleartext, is
that something that happened in Seoul? Are there
notes on this?
Seoul hasn't happened yet. It happens in a couple of weeks. I'm not
going to be there, so we'll all need an update of what gets discussed
there.
Before then, however, I have a proposal:
How about if we remove any whitespace things, and just canonicalize
line ends? It sounds like Unicode whitespace may be a huge can of
worms. Alternatively, we could just say trim anything that's <= 0x20,
which is a simple enough thing that solves some obvious attacks with
backspacing and bare CRs to overstrike.
