DFM Layout Issue in Delphi XE4 RAD Studio

I have a code in Delphi 7 application. When I open it in Delphi XE4 and afterwards when I compare the both codes in SVN, I notice that all the dfm files have been changed. The changes which I notice is like: 

Width = 443 --changed in Delphi XE4
Height = 277 --changed in Delphi XE4
ExplicitWidth = 443 --added automatically in Delphi XE4
ExplicitHeight = 277 --added automatically in Delphi XE4

How should I handle this unexpected behavior of RAD Studio?

If you want to suppress the generation of those properties in the .dfm you can use Andy Hausladen's DDevExtensions tool.

Personally, I think you may be better off accepting this new reality and admitting those changes into your reply once and for all. Sometimes it's easier to go along with a change like this rather than fighting it.
