I would like to propose establishing a documented rule for trailing whitespace which follows the current defacto standard laid out by the IDE's.
Trailing whitespace in java files is unacceptable except in an empty line in a javadoc comment in which case a single space is required.

WDYT?
+1, with the amendment that in javadocs it's not required, but allowed. This might cause a refactoring conflict: X commits a codestyle change removing the spaces, Y commits a codestyle change adding the spaces. Since I'm using git, and I always do "git add --interactive", I can filter out this kind of changes. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
