That is a strange argument... "important" => line of their own

Now before I take part in this hijacked thread (it was about 
highlighting, not indent). IMHO the exact style ot intend is mostly a 
matter of taste. Wahtever you grew up with (or are used too), seems most 
readable.
Besides this, there is pro and contra for all the styles, and no 
scientific correct choice.

But as for you saying, I couldn't resist a bit of a sarcastic answer.

To me each word (keyword, identifier, or else), each bracket, comma, 
*semicolon*, assignment or other operator => they are all important. Yet 
I don't put them all on individual lines....
