I don't think so. I agree with your comments, Konstantin, as do most current Commons sources. Our convention here is that components maintain their own checkstyle configs and those actively working on components determine how they want the sources to look. So it comes down to a question for the [ognl] committers to decide. One point to consider is that strange settings (and I would personally call at least 1 and 2 above "strange") may make it harder for new contributors to get involved and for committers to evaluate and incorporate patches.
