IOW, no, no review for whitespace, but note that I'll likely be running
astyle (a code formatter) without notice when I get some time...

Comments that are on their own - isolated changes - should be
changelogged though, as should non-autogenerated documentation.
Why? Because doco changes also have motive - like code changes, and like
code changes the motive should be recorded.
