Use this script on a json file and observe all the trailing spaces generated. (screenshot attached.)
Confirmed as still the case in Python 3 (specifically, with an early alpha of 3.3 and with 3.2 for Windows). It's because the item separator is '; ' and the newline and indent are appended to that. That can be overridden with:
json.dumps({"asdf":"123","qwer":"234","zxcv":"345"},indent=4,separators=(',',': '))
but that compacts everything, not sure if that's what you want.
The code in question is in Lib/json/encoder.py in the source tree; I'm sure you could post on the tracker (hint) with a patch (hint hint) if you want it to strip spaces followed by newlines.
