Why do the CSS & HTML minifiers add so many line breaks?
It’s rumored that some source control tools don’t like very long lines. Compressed files with shorter lines are also easier to diff. Since both Minify classes are regex-based, it would be very difficult/error-prone to count characters then try to re-establish context to add line breaks. Instead, both classes trade 1 space for 1 line break (\n) wherever possible, adding breaks but without adding bytes. If you can think of another safe & efficient way to limit lines in these two tools without adding bytes, submit a patch or some pseudocode to the support group.
