Just out of curiosity, where is "coding cookie" defined?  I found enough
distant references to decide it was supposed to mean the coding line
(line 2, typically in Unix).  But I originally thought it meant the BOM.

It must have a different name in the reference, but i can't seem to find
it right now.  If indeed it has a different name, then Pep8 should use
that name.
