Maybe it is a rare taste but I personally prefer to use code like this
if XXXXXX then begin
end;//if
with AAAAA do begin
end;//with
while CCCCC do begin
end;//while
etc.
I find very easy to locate the closing END using this little comment after it.
What do you think? Does it look wrong for some reason?

I agree that those 3 points are quite important, but it seems that in
Technetium we enjoy 100% consistent coding style quite a bit. It gets easier
to read, maintain and create new code - at least in my opinion :-)
