Well you can set the IDE to highlight such cases. (At least so long as 
the ; is on the same line, and right after the else)

In Options / Editor / go to "user defined markup" (F1 should get the 
wiki help)

Add a new term. Add the words
then;
then ;
else;
else ;

and if you want with several spaces too.

Then set the background color to a strong red. Et voila.
