Compare "Example 6.7. Block Folding" with "Example 8.2. Block
Indentation Indicator":
In Example 6.7, the tab is viewed as "content space", which means the
newlines on each side of it are kept.
In Example 8.2, it appears that the tab is just viewed as content, so
the newline after it is folded to a space.
I think Example 8.2 is incorrect. Libyaml/pyyaml agrees with me:
>>> yaml.load('- >\n \t\n foo') # Example 8.2 claims we'll get ['\t foo']
['\t\nfoo']
>>> yaml.load('- >\n t\n foo') # like we would here
['t foo']
Thanks,
Jesse
