Oh, yeah. I missed the point here and tought this was some reformatting
applied to the main stylesheet. The commit message should definitely
contain some note on how this was achieved.

After all, I don't think I'm gonna push this one anyways. As Dan said,
it's minimal gain and adds extra work to every patch affecting the
stylesheets (or at least before each release, in case we would decide to
re-create minimal stylesheets before releasing).
