Well what I would think is:

if(true)
    if(false)
        a()
    else
        b()

This would not be allowed, that is to say an if statement with a 
corresponding else must use braces:

if(true)
    if(false) {
        a()
    } else
        b()

In any case I like this idea and will now be using it for my own coding 
style.
