Yeah, -1 on cuddled elses in that case.

BTW two things:

  - go crazy with perltidy if you like ;)  it's about the right time in
    the dev timeline to do so.

  - could someone put up a page on the wiki with that command and a
    plaintext explanation, so we have a coding std to point to?

Well, if we come up with the standard, we'd want to run it periodically
to make sure the code is all done up correctly.

But yeah, let's "measure twice, cut once", so to speak.

And until all outstanding patches are applied! I have three old ones

PLEASE WAIT until we agree on the exact parameters.  I only want to run
perltidy once!
