Other people working on the project still need to use that option, and
it still makes annotate less convenient. Unnecessary cosmetic changes
are always a pain, and if done at all they should always happen in
separate commits to functional changes. (Wearing my code reviewer hat, I
will jump up and down on your head if you mix cosmetic changes with
functional changes. :))
