Actually, this reminds me of a nice feature that VAAssist has, which is the
ability to see code written by others formatted according to your own
preferences.  It's not re-saved in the repository using the new format -
it's simply to allow everyone to be able to easily read code in the way they
are most comfortable.  Perhaps this might be a reason for allowing certain
refactorings to occur - it can allow you to more easily read code without
altering code that you don't own.
