.elisp files aren't valid Guile files, so we can't run them with Guile.

One of our goals is to avoid requiring people to use emacs -- for those
who don't use it as their editor, it seems silly to download and install
emacs just to get indentation.

We don't have to (and IMO shouldn't) use downloaded patches from Rietveld
for pushing, because they lose all author information.

But we should insist on one commit per Rietveld issue (or per reviewed
chunk), unless we have some other method of verifying that the build is
not broken by intermediate commits.

Thanks,
