I'll adjust that statement; thanks for helping me out with good commit
messages (even the "As we change the defaults, .." was proposed by
you in a previous round)

This is in anticipation of the next commit, when
color_moved_ws_handling takes more flags.
I can move that over to the last commit.

Maybe I'll just state in the commit message why we keep the masking
here.

yes.

I can change those, too.

ok, will document.

Not sure I follow. you want to make it e.g.

  unsigned color_moved_ws_handling : 6;

?

Oh, that would actually work, as XDF_WHITESPACE_FLAGS
are in second to fifth bits.

But then we need to document why the XDF_WHITESPACE
need to be at these low positions.

yeah, I guess this heuristic could also make for another setting, though
as of now I did not desire any other heuristic than you originally came up
with. Will reword the text. Thanks!

Thanks,
