Whoops, I should have tested the existing behavior first. All that
needs to change is the definition of 'empty'. The current prompt is:

  Log message unchanged or not specified
  a)bort, c)ontinue, e)dit

If log messages consisting entirely of whitespace counted as 'not
specified', then this would work well for editors which add trailing
newlines, etc.
