It's just much easier. Remove those three space-fixes, and the rename of
Options to LocateOptons from the patch. 
When you're done that, you can read the patch very quickly and you see
immediately what is really changed. Without having to disregard about
half the patch.

That's just very usefull if you write the code with more people using a
system like svn. That way everybody is able to review other peoples
revisions very quickly.

Ok, I'll commit them if they are ready.
