Avi: when I see an email from you I tend to ignore it because it always seems to lead to something that is long, time consuming and complex. Would you consider finding ways to make your questions or comments a lot briefer? I will be more inclined to read them if they are briefer. You have correctly determined the conditions that will lead to continuation lines without backslash. I think we tend to use whatever is convenient. In your example of a list comprehension over multiple lines there is no indentation. There is just a lot of white space. You might look at it this way: the compiler sees a left bracket with no corresponding right bracket on that line. So it assumes that there's more to the statement on the next line, it ignores the newline and just continues. Indentation is only significant if it starts at the beginning of a statement.
