While intentions of this are good, i believe this goes too far, i doubt
that the proposed additions are enforcable and have no doubts that they
will be widely ignored and at the same time provide more grounds for
whining. Furthermore the existing code doesn't follow them, going out on
a limb, it's more likely that one would look around the code he/she
modifies and base his/her modifications on the surrounding code than to
follow the style that conflicts with it.
