As to the whitespace _before_ the '#', we can just pick one and
leave the choice to users' editor, which they have to resort to
anyway for even trivial things like fixing typos.  I am fine to
defer the choice between HT and SP to Ralph as the person in the
driver seat,

As to the whitespace _after_ the '#', I would say we have obligation
to the users to be consistent with other codepaths that we already
write our own comments.  "# " is the only sensible choice of the
default there, and we can allow other styles as I outlined in a
separate message if we wanted to.
