I in trying to make sense of the "transparent" definition, one has to
note that it seems to explicitly claim that pictures in XCF format can
be edited with "generic paint programs". The fact is that the _only_
program that can edit XCF files is the Gimp, so by direct analogy one
should probably conclude that a format that can be edited by at least
one widespread free test editor qualifies as "suitable for revising
straightforwardly with generic text editor".
