So why not treat the comma as a delimiter only when either
(1) It is on the same line as the start of the macro call, or
(2) it appears alone on a line.
The same rule can apply for the closing right-parenthesis.
So we can have:
.IfDebug(stuff1, stuff2)
or
.IfDebug(1,
multi,line
stuff,with,commas
,
stuff_with_{braces}
stuff(with)parentheses
)
With this convention, there's no need for extra syntax such as braces.
