From my discussion with Vlad on IRC that prompted this, I believe he is
wanting to clean up/modify our current formatting standards. We already
have some requirements on how our developers write spells and he (and
others) have changes they would like made. Instead of talking about it
in IRC where it gets lost I (and others) suggested he bring it up on
the ML for discussion.

Some of his suggestions are to add requirements, others are to remove
requirements (e.g. remove the spacing requrement in DEPENDS for trailing
"\" and "&&" as shown in http://www.sourcemage.org/DEPENDS, before the
current wiki mangled the formatting).
