Comment 36 for bug 2627

Martin: thanks for those two leads. Could I have comments on the linked branch, which (tries) to introduce a 'bugs.text_to_html.compress_whitespace' and presume that is default. This is written blind, and without testing.

In addition to adding the flag description, the documentation at:

  https://dev.launchpad.net/FeatureFlags

states that one must add a new scope class in:

  lib/lp/services/features/scopes.py

but this file appears to be mostly empty. Is all that is needed to query a FeatureFlag the single 'getFeatureFlag()' call?
