Should vertical tab character be included in ASCII whitespace? #670

What is the issue with the Infra Standard?

This definition of ASCII whitespace does not include U+000B VT: https://infra.spec.whatwg.org/#ascii-whitespace

I looked on wikipedia which links to what looks like the unicode standard which calls VT whitespace.

I noticed this while implementing whatwg/dom#1079 because VT is also considered whitespace in an old helper method in chromium.
