Description

Disclaimer: I am aware that it's not make-or-break for Prettier to adhere to PSR-12.

However, now that it is officially accepted as a standard, we should discuss (and, if necessary, reject) each current violation of PSR-12 — if only to have point to refer to in future discussions or issues.

PSR-12 Violations
  1. The extends and implements keywords MUST be declared on the same line as the class name.
    Section 4.1

Research direction

Start with the linked playground example and compare its current output with PSR-12 section 4.1. The issue names no source file or test, so locate the formatter entry point responsible for class declarations before assessing the change. Done means the output follows the stated extends/implements line-break rule, or the project records why it is intentionally retained.
