I'm not aware of any pre-processor tools for Python that will syntactically

unPythonic: if they match, the braces are redundant and are not needed, and
if they do not match, then the compiler (or preprocessor) should not guess
whether the indentation is right or the braces are right. But if you enforce
the rule that braces must match indentation, then the braces are redundant!
If you find such a preprocessor, or write your own, feel free to use it. But
you won't get any respect from experienced Python programmers: we use Python
in part to get away from braces, we're not chomping at the bit to put them
back in.
