There's nothing in docs/devel/style.rst. I count more than 42,000 return statements with indentation > 4. These are either within some block, or incorrectly indented. I'd bet my own money that it's the former for pretty much all of them. I count less than 130 labels right before a return statement at end of a function. Based on that, I'd say return in the middle of function is overwhelmingly common in our code.
