I don't know what the original purpose of this convention is, it was
probably invented in those ancient times when dinosaurs walked by
streets, but I kinda like these "ends here" things :-)
The only purpose I see in using them: you can be sure that there will
not appear redundant newlines (introduced by untidy commits) in the end
of files.
Anyway, I vote for leaving them and adding the missing ones.
