That's not bad. I rarely do single-line stuff, 
but when I do the braces would probably be 
clearer.

I kind of like this as well. Even though I don't 
chain, there is benefit in making it clear 
whether something is coming back or not. I'll 
have to ponder this, and maybe experiment with 
it.

Thanks to both of you for sharing these ideas!
