Chris, Problem is that committing whitespace and textual changes together causes extra work for the translation guys (and Giorgos would know, as he's one of them), so patches containing both changes can't be used. Whoever commits changes will normally follow up with a whitespace commit to fix linewrap if it's necessary, so if you could avoid making whitespace changes then it's easier for us to commit as we don't have to change it back. We don't expect you to provide a whitespace only patch as well; we get to do that ourselves(!). I know this is sometimes really hard to do, but no matter how stupid the file looks once you've made your changes, please don't wrap.
