Not necessarily in the middle of REs, but what about before them?

 describe __MY_VERY_OWN_RULE  I dont forget my own rule, do I
 header   __MY_VERY_OWN_RULE  X-Spam-Relays-Untrusted =~ m,(long)? re,

There's plenty of whitespace and opportunity to support basic line
continuation between the tokens.

 header   __MY_VERY_OWN_RULE  X-Spam-Relays-Untrusted =~ \
          m,this long re won't wrap even with old school terminals,


Also, meta rules tend to get really long, and it would make a difference
if one can fold them.

FWIW, I'd appreciate this, too. :)
