That's only my opinion.  If others agreed it, please go for it.

Another option is adding check routine like as $FreeBSD$ tag
checking.  Display warning message if *.sgml files contains blank
lines which is not fit to our rule.

Yes.  We can use entity references to represent white spaces.  To use
them, we don't need "only white space" line in *.sgml sources.
