The easiest way to add a third element is by moving over the ] character, pressing i, typing a comma and then enter. After the auto-indentation, the code will look like this:
[some_long_name,
some_other_long_name,
]
It would be more convenient to have this:
[some_long_name,
some_other_long_name,
]
We cannot just say that from now on we align the ] with the beginning of the previous line, because that would mean having incorrect indentations like this one:
[some_long_name,
some_other_long_name
]
The proposal is that when indenting ], we should examine the previous token, and if it is a comma, we could indent the ] line as if it started with e.g. an atom.
