With auto-indent - when you place a cursor between two brackets {} and hit Enter - it should move the ending bracked 2 lines below and position the cursor in the line between, for example (| = cursor position):

if (true) {|}

when one hits enter, it should be like this:

if (true) {
|
}

It's very popular setting in IDEs (also in Zend Studio). You can make it optional (but I guess noone hits enter between brackets with other intention
then creating indented block of code there).

Agree, needed function, also several "|" pointers should be implemented, that is, you press TAB, to go to another cursor position, because it would save more time.
