Emacs autoindent to the rescue:

    void MyLongMethodName(SomeLongParamType param1, SomeOtherLongParamType param2,
                          YetAnotherLongParamType param3) {
      if (longContrivedVariableName1 == longContrivedVariableName2 &&
          longContrivedVariableName1 != longContrivedVariableName3) {
        // do stuff
      }
    }

IME the more complex your code formatting, the less likely people are to do it, especially after your code has been touched by dozens of different people with a dozen different editors.
