I also prefer it, because it gives you more opportunity to look up the
template() or make() method and find out what it does.
In your example below, it's unclear which parenthesis matches the one just
before ".install(...
It would probably be better formatted more like:
Menu.template('FileMenu', _('File'), childrenBlocks=[
MenuItem.template('NewNote', _('New Note..'), ...),
MenuItem.template(...),
]).install(parcel)
Or, if the other parameters to the outermost template require more than one
line:
Menu.template('FileMenu', _('File'),
otherParam=....,
childrenBlocks=[
MenuItem.template('NewNote', _('New Note..'), ...),
MenuItem.template(...),
]
).install(parcel)
The nesting is somewhat deeper in that case, but more readable, at least
for me.
