It would be a start. Used by itself it would be a bit of a hassle, but 
having it hooked up to auto-run upon checkout/commit or upon save/load in 
the editor (this would ideally be better since you can double-check the 
reults before committing) would be pretty much what I already had in mind as 
a solution.

Alhough it wouldn't necessarily even need to be a full-fledged source 
formatter. Just something to sanitize the whitespace between start-of-line 
and anything non-whitespace would be a huge improvement *and* be 
cross-language.
