I don't care either way, as long as it's consistent. I don't think that
formatting changes are the biggest backporting problem. Sure they might
cause conflicts, but those are not the hardest to solve.

Probably not. You might be well into the lifetime of a 1.1.x branch which
will cause problems there. Which means that if you continue this line of
reasoning, you can do it by the time you end-of-life Subversion itself :-(

(Although I might have incorrect expectations about how the development
process goes from here on...)
