Yes, thanks.

I experimented with it and liked the reduced horizontal space usage,
especially given the column limit.  However I see you're right about
this case:

  switch (x) {
  case 1: {
  } break;
  default: {
  }
  }

versus

  switch (x) {
    case 1: {
    } break;
    default: {
    }
  }

We can drop that line.

That has been CMake's limit for a long time.  Since we're changing the
style anyway we might as well go with the more common 80 chars that is
default in the Mozilla style.

This brings us to:

 ---
 # This configuration requires clang-format 3.8 or higher.
 BasedOnStyle: Mozilla
 AlignOperands: false
 AlwaysBreakAfterReturnType: None
 AlwaysBreakAfterDefinitionReturnType: None
 Standard: Cpp03
