Actually, that style guide in there generally looks pretty good, but
perhaps people don't know it is there?

What might be a good idea is a kind of "welcome package" to Phobos
sent to new developers, including these links, links explaining how
dsource svn works, and other general information.

With all that stuff in one place, it'll be easier for newbies to keep
track of it all. I just now started a page for this purpose:

Looking through the source, you can see what developer has written what code. It's better to let a source control system do that instead of the coding style.
At many parts in the source it's easy to identify who wrote what.

It feels like a mad coincidence that this gets addressed now (just my posts. There are probably more):
 * http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3480363/d-phobos-style-guide
* http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/digitalmars/D/learn/D_style_guide_21098.html

It's not that it's difficult to read the source, but it's easier to read a consistent codebase.

I'll stay out of the discussion now as I'm really new to D, phobos and really much everything.. :|
