[Python-Dev] Re: whitespace normalization

Tim,

I've seen a couple of checkins lately from you like this:

Apparently you watch checkins to the std library and run reindent on
changed modules occasionally.

Would it make sense to check in a test case into the test suite that
verifies that all std modules are reindent fixpoints, so that whoever
changes a module gets a chance to catch this before they check in?
