I've noticed Aaron comment on blank lines at the end of files. I wasn't
aware that it was a strict requirement/anything we have ever discussed.

Obviously Aaron feel like they shouldn't be there. I don't really care.
For me, I feel like they actually 'terminate' the file, rather than
ending in the middle of a sentence. Maybe I'm just used to other
languages where you have a closing brace. But without the trailing
newline, it actually feels like the file isn't finished yet.

I'm not pushing strongly, but I would like to have at least discussed it
as a project, so we are all thinking along the same lines.
