[PATCH 2/5] Cosmetic fixes: fix formating of text
=> this was applied

[PATCH 3/5] Remove trailing whitespace
=> here I think I already had made the same changes subsequent to your 
patch?

[PATCH 4/5] Change conspicuousness marker in disclaimer provisions
        from '#' to '|'

As to this patch, you said:
  I don't want to start a bikeshedding argument but this marker makes it
  more like a box, i.e. a highlighted box of text.

I'm holding off on this. For those following along at home, what
happened was I decided to follow Tom Marble's suggestion of not boxing
the disclaimers in asterisks as the plain-text version of MPL 2.0
does. But then I thought another character might be better than the
asterisk for what was now just a column of characters on each side of
the disclaimer provisions. Basically I am hoping Luis Villa returns
someday and provides some opinion. :)

[PATCH 5/5] Remove full stops from section headers

I agree with this but had to do this myself. This time I used
"--author" (thanks Engel Nyst) with your name.
