You have to realize that some of these commits are not trivial single-line
changes, especially when an app is in a poor state of style-guide compliance.
Also, I believe that the style-guide commits are no more annoying in that
regard than people who simply list a bug number, such as your "bug 42222"
commit. They both provide little information in the log message and require
some indirection to figure out what actually changed.
