How is that sensible? The first change to the file will result in
exactly the mass of cosmetic diffs that we wish to avoid.
I think we probably have to specify the One True Graphics Editor, and
maybe even specific version(s) of it, if we want to avoid unreadable
diffs. The reason we have not managed to come to a consensus yet is
that people would prefer not to do that, but it's becoming obvious that
there just isn't any way around it.
