If you are making invisible changes (i.e. a broken stylesheet link, a  
markup fix), you don't even need that.

But it is unclear what happens for e.g. a reference that gets changed. I  
don't really care either way for now, so I will leave it as unclear as it  
has always been.

Hopefully I will publish a version of the document in an hour or two with
