As was discussed on IRC and confirmed by looking at GCS it doesn't
specify explicitely whether empty lines whould contain spaces. We can
use either way as long as we use it consistently. I haven't yet found
how to install ident on gentoo. If ident removes these spaces too I
think we should remove them too as it's easier to maintain if style is
the same as from ident
