+1 for not reformatting all at once but only if there are changes anyway.

The patch should mention this because it will make reviews more complex.

Yes you are right, the whole file should be reformatted.

This "around 120 chars max" rule is "new" (few years) and most of the
code there is more than a decade.
OK, sure.

If nobody disagree we could have a task Jira to reformat the code of
the most important classes (with subtasks maybe, or simply patches for
concerned classes).
I sympathise but I am not sure about this strategy, which depending on
the capabilities of your VCS might obscure the commit history.  I would
recommend to simply use the “120 chars max” guideline for newly added
code and when refactoring existing one.

WDYT?
