The huge patch that recently hit mozilla-central in bug 525063 makes me a bit sad. Did we really need to do this? On this scale?

It's presumably auto-generated by a static-analysis tool or something like that, but ISTM it has been overly aggressive, adding a lot more code churn than necessary (as well as committing some pretty extreme style violations such as over-long lines).

For example, it has added explicit initializers to constructors in cases where the members were already default-initialized at the point of declaration.

Couldn't we have been a little less heavy-handed here?

(I would have just commented in the bug, but don't have access to it....)
