Now, if you're going to sigh, then explain how they can differ :-).
(Or has that explanation already gone by in this thread? I haven't
been reading it carefully.)

Bob, et al: the text-base is stored with keywords unexpanded and EOLs
untranslated. The working file has them expanded/translated, however.

(Not that this is a showstopper, since we routinely translate
working-style to text-base-style, and could do so in this situation
too.)

I'm not advocating any code to make text-bases optional, however as
I'm fairly sure such a change would be much too complex to go in
before 1.0. I'd be happy, but *extremely* surprised, to see a patch
or detailed implementation spec that contradicted this.
