The plan is to just follow the standard Java coding conventions. I
don't recall if they mention this specific situation, but personally I
prefer to see the variable name first because it's easier to read. The
only time I've ever seen a reversal like that is when doing something
like ...
if("".equals(variable))
this is useful if you don't want to exlicitly check that "variable" is
non-null before trying to use the .equals() method.

bit that isn't usually done in Java, usually it's
a C habit I think:
if ( null != mVariable )
instead of:
if ( mVariable != null )
Is this a contentious one, or something to easily fix as and when it's seen?
