Comment (by karsten): In dir-spec, lines starting with `@` are treated as annotations that ''precede'' a descriptor and that can be stripped off without changing the descriptor. Including such a line inside a descriptor might be problematic. But after reading this ticket and #29461, I wonder if my suggestion to add a version number was bad advice. After all, we already have `snowflake- stats-end` in the first line as unique identifier of this descriptor type. And if something in the data format changes, there will be a specification update introducing new lines anyway. It's probably not worth the effort to update existing specification, implementation, and data to add something that we probably won't need. Can I take this suggestion back and we leave the format unchanged?
