I agree that consistency would be preferable here. Syntax subtleties where sometimes you can have
trailing commas and sometimes you can't are more confusing than helpful IMHO.
One point where I'm most missing it is function calls because we use some very powerful
variadic functions in our core library which can lead to long parameter lists (without being bad
design) and therefore profit the most from not having a special case on the last line.
And I really don't expect a proliferation of uglier code by allowing trailing commas while
there are cases where it is very useful.
