   I think (and as far as I understood, Chong Yidong does too) that this is
   a welcoming message for future problems.  You patch up a piece of code,
   while there are hundreds other lisp files, many of which insert newlines,
   some of which need to be hard.  We probably need something generic.  At
   the very least we need a convenience function to create a newline-string
   with the necessary properties already set, so we don't have to go over
   the lines above each time.

Doesn't (newline) insert the right kind of newline based on the value
of `use-hard-newlines'?
