Great idea. While you're at it, it should also enforce
StudlyCaps class names, refuse to save files containing
recursive functions, and do automatic grammar checking
on your comments. Heaven forbid that any individual or
organization should have a coding style different from
the officially sanctioned norm.

More concisely: Please, please, *no*.
