Subject: 24.0.50; cperl indentation
Date: Thu, 03 Mar 2011 11:37:10 -0500
cperl-mode mis-indents _data_ (as opposed to _code_).
e.g.,

use Class::Struct Foo => [
    a => '$',
    b => '$',
    c => '$',
];

is indented as

use Class::Struct Foo => [
                          a => '$',
                          b => '$',
                          c => '$',
                         ];

which is much less readable.
the same goes for

my $foo = [
    "a",
    "b",
    ("c","d"),
];

I understand that this might be a matter of taste, but it would be nice
if my preferred indentation were also available.

PS. I am aware (and not fond) of the alternative

my $foo =
  [ .... ];

The paperless office will become a reality soon after the paperless toilet.
