I respectfully disagree. A messy file makes it much harder to make correct edits. Without or without a vote, when I pull an XML file into an editor and it is inconsistently indented, I take the 30 seconds it takes to reformat it before I do anything else. Since Glen has to edit all these POMs anyway, it seems reasonable to me for him to neaten them up.
