Single users will be choosing a single tool.  Multiple users will likely
use a source repository.  Good source repositories will allow for pre or
post processing.  Or heck, I'm sure that Emacs or Vim can even be
tweaked to understand the others encoding declarations.  If not, there
are more than a dozen source editors that support both, and even some
that offer the features I describe.
