The unnecessary whitespace change in the "Search for and fix..." line
makes for a noisier diff and wasted a little bit of review time. Don't
know if it's worth a re-roll, though.

The hyphen is slightly difficult to interpret. A double hyphen, or
even better a semicolon, would have helped set off the second phrase
from the first. Alternatively, writing it as:

    """Output one file from the P4 stream.

        This is a helper for streamP4Files().
        """

might be even clearer. Probably not worth a re-roll, though.
