I have an idea to improve indenting guidelines for dictionaries for better
readability: If a value in a dictionary literal is placed on a new line, it
should have (or at least be allowed to have) a n additional hanging indent.
Below is an example:
mydict = {'mykey':
'a very very very very very long value',
'secondkey': 'a short value',
'thirdkey': 'a very very very '
'long value that continues on the next line',
}
As opposed to this IMHO much less readable version:
mydict = {'mykey':
'a very very very very very long value',
'secondkey': 'a short value',
'thirdkey': 'a very very very '
'long value that continues on the next line',
}
As you can see it is much harder in the second version to distinguish
between keys and values.
