As you already mentioned, this is grade-A bikeshed material; however,
the counter-argument to this is:

if (0 == i)
{    foo(i);
     bar(i);
}

Personally, I like the one you quoted (brace on a line of its own),
but I'd much rather use this than tacking a brace on the end of the
if() line, which is plain ugly, IMO.

Just thought I'd throw some more kindling on the fire.
