I second the motion.
there is a style guide and anyone should at least try to make their shared code similar
to it, if he is sharing code at large. I know many programmers have extensive backgrounds(habits)
in other languages which make it harder to adapt their reflexed coding habits to a different
form, but it does make your code more usefull in any case if it looks similar enough
so that others can read it without squinting.
enabling a feature that goes against the style guide defeats its purpose.
