I reviewed this now as part of the pull request and my take is that the coding guidelines as proposed here go a bit too far. Indentation and brace placement affect readablilty quite a lot, but do we really want to waste time fighting over where to place spaces in an expression? I say focus on the most important readability points and just cope with the rest instead of imploring new contributors to learn a larger set of rules. And I'd prefer to have people thinking about the code design than about some minor layout issue.
True, but we need common standards. Arctic made a pull request earlier which was unreadable.

did you know that spinning stars work like this???

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. execute_strings on fire off the shoulder of Overmars. I watched object-beams glitter in the dark near the room_goto_fix. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears...in...rain. Time to die.
