Even if we do adopt such a rule, C patches posted to the tracker should still try to avoid including pure whitespace changes though - leaving the whitespace changes in the patch tends to lead to patches that look like "remove function body, add different function body" when only a couple of lines have actually had significant changes. That's fine with me. Correcting whitespace can be considered a committer's job.

Maybe a rule could be added to Tools/scripts/patchcheck.py?
