Sorry, I missed your original request.
This seems like a bug to me because multi-paragraph comment bodies are
usually indented to align with the comment start token.
If you strip trailing whitespace on save, this behavior results in bad
comment indentation, something like:
<!-- First line of comment is here. It may go on for
several lines in a format something like you'd expect.
After the blank line, the comment is outdented relative to the
comment start/end markers.
-->
This is all from distant memory, so apologies if I'm describing it
incorrectly.
