llvm dev - Feb 2010 - [LLVMdev] VIM mode line comments

Is it kosher to include vim mode line comments inside of LLVM source files? I
would like to do this inside of the MicroBlaze backend to ensure that tabs are
expanded into exactly two spaces. I see that right now the following files have
these vim mode line comments:
	include/llvm/ADT/SetVector.h
	lib/Archive/ArchiveInternals.h
	lib/Linker/LinkModules.cpp
	lib/Transforms/IPO/DeadTypeElimination.cpp
	lib/VMCore/Function.cpp

Since this does not seem to be a wide spread practice I thought I would ask
before I made the changes.

I'd prefer not to do that, but if it is really useful to you, go for it in
the mblaze files only.

utils/vim/vimrc is the usual way to use vim with LLVM source.  Is that  
inconvenient?
