Is there any interest in adopting this PR?

We are looking into adopting this library, and ran into an issue with some keys we expect to decode have \n characters.

@izoroth Short answer: not currently, no.

Long answer: Well, it's not really a PR, it's a series of sketches of what a despacing algorithm might look like. There's no definite patchset to merge, and if there was, the patches would probably not apply on top of the current master branch. There would also be API changes to consider. And there is a discussion to be had about whether to optimize for sparse whitespace or dense whitespace.

I think that whitespace filtering could make sense in this library as an opt-in feature, but it's not fleshed out enough yet.
