I don't, really. I don't use that mode. It's better to respect the
original source, so that the diffs and annotations aren't just noise...

Of course if you trawl through *my* commits, you would find
counter-examples to this "principle", so I guess there's a trade-off?

Unfortunately no guidelines, no. If you make some up, we'll use them
though :)
