Not sure, probably not.  pkg-descr was always kinda gray area, since most
people do not really care how does it look (or do they look).  So I think
there are no firm standards.  I would suggest use your best judgment and
sense of aesthetics.  It's good that at least recently we seem to have
consensus on preferring space to tab after WWW: (and similar) lines.
