This seems to be the most easy option. Also, how about adding another
field to every lease:
"generated-by": "leaseshelper v$X" (where X is the value provided by
the macro PACKAGE_VERSION)
so that whenever a new field is added in the future, we don't have
trouble finding out which version of leaseshelper added it.
Hmmm, that doesn't seem to be such a good idea. If we want to add the
"generated-by" statement, we should wrap the leases array into an object.
