How should white space collapsing behavior (like collapsing trailing or leading whitespaces around a line break) be handled? CSS uses white-space and related properties. How might these configuration options be applied to this API?

Current behavior appears to be:

  • Newlines are preserved
  • Spaces are preserved
  • Tabs are collapsed
  • End-of-line spaces are preserved
