Strongly agree.  I've been programming in a multitude of languages for over 
forty years, and I find operator before line break to be a much more readable 
(and aesthetically pleasing) arrangement.

Sun's Java programming conventions haven't been updated in over a decade, and 
were written before many people had much experience with the language.  It's 
unfortunate they haven't been kept up to date with newer productivity findings. 
 (I also find it quite curious that they specify break after comma, but before 
other operators - we don't need no stinkin' consistency.)
