How many people really give a shit?  I'm truly curious.

Personally, I'd "fix" the style in code I'm mucking around with, I
have no issue with other people "fixing" style on a larger scale, but
tracking this in the STATUS file and even bringing up the
"showstopper" label seems a little silly to me when we haven't had a
beta since April :)

Best wishes,

Jeff
