It's been a couple of weeks now. Can we move forward?

Anthony Jones has done some work on using clang-format to restyle
lines that have changed in a file, but I don't think anyone has done
any evaluation of clang-format for whole-file changes.

I wonder if we could allow hand-reformatting (e.g.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=956199), at least for the
moment? Because if we don't allow that, we're stuck in limbo until we
decide on official guidelines for using automatic tools.
