I think the solution is to rely on hanging indents rather than trying to align with the column of the previous opening parenthesis, bracket, etc. So instead of this: def some_method(param1 param2): statement1

I'm not sure whether Thunderbird would meet your criteria, but there are a number of keyboard bindings and it can handle HTML messages reasonably well (especially if you set the view option to plain text).

At my place of work, we've sort of implemented that feature by using fixup or squash commits. That is, if a comment is made on a diff line in a PR, use git blame to determine which commit was responsible for that line of code, update

That may explain the way the media is framing the trip withdrawals from Afghanistan but not asking why we still have trips stationed there after nearly 20 years.
