Hello GHC devs,
While I refactored the ghc code base to declare LANGUAGE pragmas locally, rather than via -X-flags on the GHC commandline, I've noticed there were a couple of places where NondecreasingIndentation grammar was used.
What's the current consensus on the use of NondecreasingIndentation? Is its use still encouraged?
I like it for things like do ... if exit_early then return () else do ... more stuff ... Without NondecreasingIndentation this creeps to the right, which isn't a good use of whitespace. Cheers, Simon

Moreover, I touched several files (over 300) while refactoring, would that qualify as "working on this module" in the sense of
| While working on this module you are encouraged to remove it and detab | the module (please do the detabbing in a separate patch).
or would that overreach wrt the original intent of the guideline quoted above?
