    The Unicode consortium and the C++ committee are interested in diagnosing Vertical whitespaces (VT, FF) that appear in single-line comments. We should explore a warning to guide this effort.

The motivation for this warning is that if an IDE treats such a vertical character as whitespace (which they are recommended to do), the divergence between the behavior of compilers and IDEs can lead to code spoofing, and therefore security concerns
