No, not a single IDE. That's like ordering a single size of boots for an army. I was thinking along the lines of a Pretty Printer.

Single tool? Like a single IDE? Not gonna happen IMO.

I'm also 1+ on consistant coding standards/conventions, regardless what form they take. Maybe I'm missing something, but what's the difference between automatically enforcing style and manually refactoring a class to be in conformance with the standard? Would standardizing on a single tool resolve the sync problem?

The real can of worms is opened when developers start reformatting code with Pretty Printers or IDEs and then try to get their patches applied; everything is suddenly out of sync with what's in CVS. Even automatically enforcing the style as it gets checked in doesn't really avoid that one.
I'm sure I could find some earlier, er, 'discussions' about this in the archives of other mailing lists for everyone's amusement ;-)
For what it's worth, I'm +1 on the general idea though.
