Well, most pieces of code start with one instance, then two, then
more ;-). When the second instance starts being different from the
first, it doesn't give a good example for the future third instance.

This particular piece of code is so important and I won't fight for a
better factored one, but in general "there are only two instances" is a
dubious argument to avoid refactoring.

Still, I find it weird to force the nobracket to be always at the same
position.
