Description Martin CLA 2011-08-18 04:17:12 EDT 
Would it be possible to get the JavaScript formatter to line-break after commas in multiple-variable declarations, and to then indent the following lines?

Currently:

var myVar = 'test', hisVar = 'real', herVar = 'live';

Ideally (if the formatting comes out right):

var myVar = 'test',
    hisVar = 'real',
    herVar = 'live';

This would then conform nicely with the standard JSLint practice of declaring all at the front.
