Description
I'm surprised no one has asked about this already, but I like to keep trailing spaces matching the expected indent level, as follows. Could we get an option for this please?
impl X {
/// A function
///
/// Some more text.
fn f() {}
fn g() {}
}

The issue provides a Rust formatting example but names no files or tests. First locate rustfmt's configuration and whitespace-formatting tests, then specify how the option should handle the blank and doc-comment lines shown; done means the example output is produced without changing default behavior.
