  | So just as
  |
  |   if (foo) {
  |     ...
  |   } else if (bar) {
  |     ...
  |   }
  |
  | vs.
  |
  |   if (foo) {
  |     ...
  |   }
  |   else if (bar) {
  |     ...
  |   }

Sorry, I see no difference in the two.   Certainly cascading if else if ...
really need extra braces, and better indentation to make it clear what else
associates with which if, but I really cannot see how an extra linefeed makes
any difference at all.
