How do I reduce “uses” boilerplate for new forms?

Question

Every time I add a new form to my project, it drops a big glop of boilerplate in the uses clause.

uses
  Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Variants, Classes, Grap

The according resource is located in $(BDS)\bin\delphivclide*.bpl and named "VCLIDECMD"; you can extract, edit and update it with the resource editor of your choice (I recommend the one included in Pelles C).

For C++Builder users, the template file is "CPPVCLIDECMD" in bcbvclide*.bpl.

If you are using a localized version of RAD Studio, look at the appropriate language resource files (*.DE, *.FR or *.JA).
