Don't know quite why, but I wound up quite liking the rule

Here's a breakdown of some of the more popular formatting
styles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indent_style. I think D
tends towards Allman style (which I think the astyle formatter
calls BSD style). My code is formatted a bit differently in
terms of spacing around parens but I'd be happy to have it
changed--I use Allman style these days too.
Actual style mostly don't matter. Consistency matter.
Yep. But it's easier to get consistency if everything follows
the same style. Commits to my code by other people, for example,
typically follow Allman style despite it not being the way
existing code is formatted in the module.
