Bug description: Alternative syntax for control structures
Description:
------------
I find the alternative syntax for control structures quite useful and use
them exclusively in all my code. My only wish is that they become available
for all similar structures. Obvious ones which come to mind are Function
and Class.
It has been said that:
"The 'endif;' stuff is old legacy syntax and is definitely not the
recommended way of doing things."
It seems to me that the "{...}" form goes a ways back as well. Is the
alternative syntax really frowned upon? What kind of trouble might be
caused by it's use?
Thanks,
Richard
