Enforce "Never start a line with ( or ["

[caesarsol]

Don't you think the rule:

Never start a line with ( or [. This is the only gotcha with omitting semicolons.

should be enforced by the eslint configuration?

Never starting a line with a ( or [ is already enforced. Check it out:

console.log('hi')
[1, 2, 3].forEach(console.log)

Unexpected newline between object and [ of property access. (no-unexpected-multiline)

[feross]

For the record, you can add a leading semicolon in this situation, if desired:

console.log('hi')
;[1, 2, 3].forEach(console.log)

No errors.

Also for the record, you can test this stuff out easily on http://standardjs.com/demo.html 👍

interesting... i just tripped into a JS error because of this and standard didnt catch it. Guess i was on an old version

@rstacruz if you have a test case where the current version doesn't catch it, please share so we can fix that.
