Yeah, I agree that it's generally harmless. My rationale for preferring no-space-after-comma is that it's less misleading: if you're used to other languages where space-after-comma has no meaning at all, then it's easy to think that the two are identical when they're not. End-of-line-continuations are I think slightly different because the fact that the space remains in the result is a bit more obvious (the continuation just folds things). -- PMM
