Instead of reinventing the wheel, maybe a "scissors line" could be used, i.e. a line consisting mainly of "-", ">8" and "8<", similar to the line used by git-mailinfo? I'm also wondering if we shouldn't have a similar marker for the end of the mask entries, i.e. everything after it would be ignored. This isn't currently needed for package.mask, but other files in profiles have an Emacs local variables block or a Vim modeline at the end.
