The leading newline is now optional: If indentation stripping is enabled, you can either start typing content on the same line as the delimiter, or you can start on the next line. I resisted this solution for a while because it seems ad-hoc, but ultimately it's the design that preserves the most formatting flexibility for the user, so I think it's the right way to go.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Other than that, there are no changes to the design in this revision, though I've rephrased a few things and added a section about why we strip a leading newline but not a trailing one.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">John has also built a new version of the toolchain which matches this behavior.
