Not a bad request, William, but yes the first thing I thought was, "Oh man, there are so many things that need to be fixed before the Xcode team should be spending time on this."
And the team unfortunately tends to entertain every ill-founded objection to enhancements and make decisions that serve the tiny minority of use cases while crippling the majority of usage. For example, I asked that Xcode not insert garbage tabs or leading spaces on empty lines, something that Visual C++ doesn't do and yet offers equally effective auto-indent.
Someone actually argued that filling the files with this garbage is GOOD. And unfortunately, this is the kind of specious objection that routinely holds sway at Apple. Witness the lack of even an option to keep files sorted. So I'm sure someone would step up with an objection to William's request, and that would be that.
Hey, speaking of leading garbage on empty lines, can Uncrustify strip this out?
