I added that to deal with an existing bug in the Ruby Stomp client.
The protocol allows (but does not require) white space between frames.
The existing Stomp gem requires a newline after the null frame
terminator. I checked on the Stomp mailing list and it is a bug.

I was going to roll my own journal system, actually had started, but
decided to get it working first and madeleine seemed like the quickest
route to that goal. All the operations are pretty well encapsulated in
the FrameJournal class so it would be easy to change it out.

I have not done any performance measurements yet, so I cannot comment
on where the delays might be originating. I will be taking a look at
performance after I get a few more things wrapped up (docs and command
line processing).

Thanks for the feed back
