Dear all,
As I understand it, a fixed width section (BTW, is "fixed width section" the
official term for this?) is defined as a line which is started by zero or
more spaces, and then a colon, *and then a space*, and then zero or more
characters.
:<spc>line1
:<spc>
:<spc>line3
But many editors (Emacs including) likes to trim trailing spaces, so when
the file is saved, the second line loses its space:
:<spc>line1
:
:<spc>line3
Should the second line be parsed as a fixed width section too or not?

As far as I know, this doesn't happen in Emacs, unless you specify it
explicitly (i.e. in some hook).

I'd say yes.
You may have noticed that exporters already treat that line as
fixed-width section anyway. But this is inconsistent with fontification
(and indentation) in the buffer.
I've pushed a commit to fix this inconsistency in master.
Thanks for pointing this out.

Thanks for clearing this up, I've also updated the Org::Parser Perl module.
