Based on a number of recent events, I'm thinking of switching the
PmWiki default in 2.2.0 so that leading whitespace characters
no longer produce preformatted text. It would of course be
available as an option for those who want it, or for those
who have sites that have a lot of preformatted text based
on the leading whitespace rule.
Yes, this would mean substantially fixing up many existing
preformatted sections of the PmWiki docs, and yes, I'm up for
doing that if we decide to make this switch.
This would not completely supplant the LiteralWhitespace
recipe, as this only deals with removing the special
interpretation of leading spaces as preformatted text.
I've started a page for voting at

Discussion can take place either on the mailing list or at

Thanks in advance for opinions and comments!
