I am working on some UI improvements for gpicview now, and have found
there is no UI source file for the configuration dialog in the git.
Instead, there is a file (data/pref-dlg.ui) whose content is all the
same but with any space and newline characters removed.

The same thing happened to lxappearance and lxshortcut too.

Now you can neither edit such file with a plain text editor nor view
what is actually changed between revisions with git diff.

I just wondering what was a reason to drop a real source file in favor
of de-facto binary format. (As there are no newline characters, it is
not human readable, in fact.)
