Yep, the lines above are using the spaces to align the sections of the
multi-line if statement. This happens again for the return statements
in highlight_pair and is_pair_interesting. So this is the only line
that doesn't stick to the rule (and probably because of editor
auto-indenting). I have another change for the same change (which I'll
send once I've written tests) and I only noticed this line when I
changed my editor's default tabwidth after a while of coding.
