I'd rather see backslashes :-)  Besides,

   x.each with do |i| ... end

looks pretty awful.

It's hard for me to say beyond that because I think having the method
name and the block params on the same line looks better and is
clearer.  Also, it looks weird to me to have anything between a method
name and a block (except for arguments to the method).
