For example, in a PKGBUILD I would write ${pkgname}_$pkgver,

prefer to use $pkgname-$pkgver, since hyphens are not allowed in
variable names.
Less typing, less ugliness. :)
This is the way I've always done it and it's much nicer to read. Same
for quoting, use only when needed.
+1 for braces around vars only when needed.
If you use braces only when necessary, it will not be consistent - you
have braces sometimes and other times you don't. I thought coding style
was about consistency.
As Dieter mentioned, we can use braces when needed and be consistent in
this regard. Most of the time they are not needed and I think using them
everywhere hinders readability with no obvious benefit.
