The attached file add the ability to preserve
whitespace in textwrap.  Usefull where you are using
textwrap in instances where whitespace is significant
(I'm using it to reflow Gettext PO file text).

By default the current behaviour is preserver so the
added option is called drop_whitespace and by default
it is set to True.
