To be honest, I don't like that. I'm fine with people putting it in, but 
making it mandatory is not OK with me. I would not like to reject someone's 
patch based on "its properties aren't foldable in vim". First, this is 2013. 
Then, property definitions aren't usually pages long, I've rarely seen more 
than 10.

-1 one if it was the idea to mandate {{{ annd }}} in comments. 

(Allowing it is fine with me, mandating is is not.)
