Talking from my own experience when doing retirement stuff, there seems
to be two large currents on metadata.xml in the tree, using tabs and 2
spaces for indentation.
I personally prefer tabs, but I also like using EAPI="<version>",
sorting everything alphabetically and even use the following depend blocks:

*DEPEND="
        !<X-2.0
        !Y
        <A>
        <B>
        ...
        <Z>
        a? ( <X> )
        b? ( <Y> )
        c? (
                <J>
                <K>
        )
"

As expected, I'm sure many of the others disagree / dislike at least
part of my preferences.
