I saw another patch get rejected today because of switch statement indentation. We discussed this last week, and I saw a lot of support for my proposal of indenting case labels from their switch. But the discussion did not end in resolution. To summarize, here are the options mentioned:

1) Case labels always have the same indentation as their switch (today's rule)

2) Case labels always indent 4 spaces in from their switch (my preference)

3) Case labels indent 2 spaces in from their switch. (Maciej's rule)

I was a little unclear on Maciej's rule. The last part of his rule is "In the case where a case label is followed by a block, include the open brace on the same line as the case label and indent the matching close brace only two spaces (but still 4 spaces for the contained statements)". Did he mean that the contained statements would be indented 4 spaces from the case label, meaning they would be indented 6 spaces from the switch? That's the only way the closing brace could be indented 2 spaces from the switch and the code indented 4 spaces from the brace. If so, I especially dislike this rule because it places the entire body of a block at a nonstandard indentation.

Anyway, how do we come to resolution on this?
