I utterly fail to see what time I takes to maintain. There is literally nothing to change in that snippet, it takes less time to maintain that the license block at the top of the files.

How is defining its coding standards less important for the source than defining its encoding, especially when pretty much every single source only contains ascii characters in the first place?

It's not like removing that line from the source would improve the OpenERP tooling in any way, shape or form though. It would still be dia + whatever your favorite text editor happens to be.
