Looks okay, but let's answer the meta-question first of whether we
should just make 'format' mandatory and be done with it.

Also, I've noticed you aren't cc'ing many people; that can slow down

how to determine the right people to send your patches to, by
deciphering MAINTAINERS and running ./scripts/getmaintainer.pl.
