New submission from Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org>:
Tools/scripts/reindent-rst.py strips trailing whitespace from reST files, including ^L. ISTM that this character is always used explicitly, not by oversight, e.g. by people wanting their editor to paginate files like plain text PEPs. I suggest that the regex at the core of the script be changed to let ^L alone.
This is arguably a bug fix, depending on your definition of “trailing whitespace”, but I’m not sure at all whether it should be in 2.7.1.
