Valid point.

Note that it wasn't JUST punctuation/capitalization that changed in the 
given example, but the version number, 1.2.3 => 1.7.3, as well.  Is that 
still a trivial change?

Altho I'm not sure whether kensington changed the version number in his 
example deliberately, or if that was just a typo, but never-the-less, as 
posted, the version number changed too, and at least to me, that's not 
the trivial change that just ordering/category-adds/punctuation/caps 
changes are.
