Sorry for dropping in late.

I haven't read all of the posts, only the first ~10.
Why can't the style follow the C++ style as close as possible?

For instance:
Item
{
    ...
}

function someFunction()
{

}

That's how the C++ spec looks and it seems obvious to me to use the
same style for javascript as well. In the above i interpret "Item" as
"class" thus the brace should be on the next line. The functions are
just like C++ functions. Further more i find code a lot more pleasant
to read if the brace characters are on a new line rather then the same
line. Now i can't ask to put the brace on a new line for all cases,
but i do ask to follow the C++ style where possible.
