Fully agree.

I think an exception should be granted for "else if" case, otherwise
the style would require braces around "if", like:
if (a == 5) {
printf("a was 5.\n");
} else {
if (a == 6) {
printf("a was 6.\n");
}
} else {
printf("a was something else entirely.\n");
}
Picking nits: "while" is a control flow statement, even in "do {}
while" statement and then it would illegal to require a braced block
after the "while" statement.
