I would prefer it if braces were disallowed for single-line bodies but allowed for multi-line bodies, even if the body was syntactically a single statement. After all, the purpose of coding style is to increase readability. Readability depends on how many lines of code are affected, not on whether those lines comprise one vs. two C language statements.
