Thus for C programmer it's difficult to understand block statement without braces :) and for basic programmer it's difficult to delimit block statement with braces.

Ah yes - that's probably true.

I wonder if it's possible to write a standalone tool that doesn't know
or care about language grammar (except maybe some general rules about
what constitutes a quote or a comment), that can freely convert
between

    Lorem ipsum (dolor sit amet)
    {
        consectetur!(adipisicing)(elit, sed);
        do
        {
            eiusmod tempor incididunt;
            ut labore;
            et dolore;
        }
        magna(aliqua);
    }

and

    Lorem ipsum (dolor sit amet):
        consectetur!(adipisicing)(elit, sed)
        do:
            eiusmod tempor incididunt
            ut labore
            et dolore
        magna aliqua

If so, we can have not only D-in-Python-style (which I'd never use),
but also Python-in-D-style (which I actually might). It sounds like it
ought to be feasible.
