There little things this much influenced by personal taste as coding
style, which, if you think about it, isn't that strange.

So calling someone names because of a preference for a coding style is
futile and disrespectful. If I would be complaining about everyone that
does not adhere to _my_ preferred coding, I'd really have a day job just
insulting people.

A project either has a mandatory coding style (which probably nobody
really agrees with, but that's at least a standard), in which you can
require developers to comply with it OR there is NO reason at all to
complain about coding style. From the source it looks like there is
actually no mandatory coding style, so.... if someone wants to use
indent (at all) to format it's (submitted) patches to mplayer, I am
afraid there no real reason to deny them (or insult).
