Description Allan Sandfeld Jensen 2012-11-05 09:36:26 PST 
The style-checker performs its indentation check on cleansed lines, this means that comments are not checked for indentation, and inline comments followed by white-space will be miscounted by style-checker. 

Instead the style-checker should perform indentation check on raw-lines. This way it will also ensure comments correctly indented.

Please add a test.  There's a nice unit testing framework for this code.

I want to run a one more test on this patch before landing. I am uncertain if multi-line comments are correctly handled, or might give false errors.

It seems this r+ patch didn't landed. Is this needed now to enhance "Style-checker" or this is already taken care of one way or another? Thanks!
