Up to you. Text on the first line is used as a brief description when
the full text may be long.

Okay.

I am probably releasing 3.3 as stable next month. In which case it will
not be worth the effort.

Logically both are working on whatever the storeId currently is to
produce no-change or a new one. So I think we should let the helper be
passed the storeID from ICAP. Leaving it up to the admin whether to use
two or one, and when each operates.

./scripts/sourcemaintenance.sh is the main one. It requires a secific
version of astyle to do full syntax checks but some checks are always run.
