I can only add to this that following strict pattern definitely 
simplifies things for *my* built-in parser ;-)

OT: it reminds me how I wrote a PPM and PGM image format module in 
Python. Since PNM specs are rather fluid, everybody seem to follow their 
own header scheme, so I gave up thinking normally and started mangling 
're' regexp pattern until it started to consider anything but image data 
as image header ;-)
