IMO, I dislike spurious and overused indentation in code, so that's 
likely why I shy away from "extra" use of braces.

   for( ...some code )
   {
      do some init
      {
          do a little work
          {
             declare a temporary variable
          }
          {
             declare another temporary variable
          }
          {
             declare yet another temporary variable
          }
          {
             declare still yet another temporary variable
             {
                 declare a temporary variable inside
                 an anonymous block
             }
          }
      }
   }

vs. just one level of indentation, I believe I'd greatly prefer the 
latter, especially in the long run.  And the above is with 3-4 spaces 
for indenting, imagine what it would look like with 8.
