Scala considering significant indentation like Python

[Steve D'Aprano]

The creator of Scala, Martin Odersky, has proposed introducing Python-like
significant indentation to Scala and getting rid of braces:

    I was playing for a while now with ways to make Scala's syntax
    indentation-based. I always admired the neatness of Python syntax
    and also found that F# has benefited greatly from its optional
    indentation-based syntax, so much so that nobody seems to use
    the original syntax anymore.
