 Replying to [comment:1 daira]:
 > Isn't the fact that you're modifying a file a pretty strong heuristic
 indication that you want to keep it?

 Also, I'm not really keen on using heuristics for this. I would rather
 have simpler rules that are easier for everyone (developers, users) to
 remember and make them more accurate in their predictions of which files
 will be retained. In fact, as per #1832, I would actually prefer a
 ''very'' simple rule: I agree to store this file for you until you tell me
 otherwise! (As long as I still have a relationship with you -- e.g. you
 are a customer in good standing, or you are still my friend, or whatever.)
