I'm content to interpret silence as consent for most changes, but
changing the indentation of multiple files is a relatively
destructive policy.
1) almost any existing patch to scheme files will break
2) it makes the git history harder to look through (unless you use
the git --ignore-whitespace option)
I think we should be conservative about indentation policies; we
shouldn't rush forwards if a main developer has concerns.
