So far as I understand it this dates back to Andy's original
implementation where the idea was to strip off leading space. It seems
to have two applications of strip, one to eliminate leading & trailing
space from the whole and a second controlled one to strip from each
line.

The first one will strip any number of blank lines so I'm a bit worried
about making it optional.
