The point is not that I don't like indentation; I do like 
indentation, I don't like to do it. I would want the editor do 
it for me, if the editor is a smart one, or a choice not to 
bother about it, when the editor is dumb one.

Generally this is not a big issue for me, I am pretty consistent 
in where I put my braces. Also - as I said - a smart editor 
should point this out to me.

It is a bigger issue that I cannot quickly move a group of code 
in and out a block without reformatting, or that if a space or 
tab added accidentally, the code will suddenly stop working.

I also like the choice to do one liner.
