If it isn't, why are we talking about FF and VT? They don't display as
"blank" in Emacs.
If the point is to close up blank lines, this is sort of like line-
breaking in reverse, so only line-break characters should be deleted.
Function delete-trailing-whitespace specifically states that it does not
delete FF. It also doesn't delete VT. So why should
delete-blank-lines delete these?
