@RogerRiggs Otoh, this change is really trivial. I have verified that all changes are replacing trailing ";;" in Java code. These are all clearly typos. I think it's nice that we try to strive for a high quality, and while you are correct this is maybe not the most pressing issue, I think it's nice to get a cleanup like this done. 

I'd argue that this is a trivial change. If you are worried, let's get a couple of more reviewers. I can't see the need to split this up per area.
