To some extent the idea was to update the date in the patch when the
code change was happening, instead of a blanket date change.

The template files are auto generated using a bunch of scripts.
What we are seeing is probably because of that.
But we have cleaned up many of those in the v4 submission.

Actually, no.
As I mentioned above, most of the truflow files are auto generated.
The reason for bundling some of the changes together was to avoid
multiple patches hitting the mail server patch size limit.
We thought it might be better to take the patch size hit on one patch
instead of multiple patches.

We are working on some design changes to the auto generation scripts
which will avoid big churn in the template patches in the future.

We have addressed these in the v4 version.
