and you missed the main point i was making. i have no problem with
having a style suggestion rejected because there is already a current
coding style. what irked me was to be told there was a current coding
style, only to find out that it's not even *enforced*. which, in the
end, makes it kind of pointless.
let's drop it and move on.
