Hello,

I noted you often do useless (and confusing for the translators)
line-wrappings (or what we call "mixing whitespaces and content changes").
In the example above, only one line was really modified and finally we
end with three modified lines.  I let you imagine the "headaches" for a
translator or any other person trying to figure out what was really
modified.  Just to sum up: we mustn't mix content and
whitespaces/linewrapping/layout changes.
