@simonw I seem to recall you like your intra-block blank lines indented like I do. Do you know a way to get Sublime to flag true "trailing" whitespace but not flag indented intra-block blank lines?

Unfortunately I don't - I've had to drop that particular preference for compatibility with co-workers

I find the trailing spaces plugin very helpful for Python coding: https://github.com/SublimeText/TrailingSpaces
