I suspect that your concerns about git-blame could be resolved by adding
this commit to .git-blame-ignore-revs.  From a long-term perspective, I
think standardizing on the trailing comma style will actually improve
git-blame because patches won't need to add a comma to the previous line
when adding a value.
