I think nowadays programmers expect their language to come with more
opinion and best practices. In contrast, the C++ world is too
fragmented for consistent advice.
I believe, the best solution would be to include an auto-formatter
(like go fmt), so people can simply reformat the code before and after
editing.
You could also store the code not as text but as a datastructure like a
parse tree. Then the editing environment is free to handle this
information the way it wants...
