...and the null byte, \x00.

The manual cleanup of the whitespaces is what I'm doing currently. But
it's a pain in the ass because the situation is more complex than
described, and the whitespaces are a bit tricky to catch with a regex.

Further I'm often dealing with dozens, if not hundreds of lines at a
time, making it difficult to see if the regex really matches what it should.
