We seem to be seriously contemplating making every patch author do
this every time they need to get the tests to pass (after adding or
renaming a struct). Is that really an improvement over the old status

In principle I'm in favor of strictly enforcing indentation rules like
this. But it seems likely that our current tooling just isn't up to
the task.
