Description
e.g.
fn foo() {
unprivileged_content.start_all::<script_layout_interface::message::Msg, layout_thread::LayoutThread, script::script_thread::ScriptThread>(true);
}
It should be formatted to something like the following:
fn foo() {
unprivileged_content.start_all::<
script_layout_interface::message::Msg,
layout_thread::LayoutThread,
script::script_thread::ScriptThread,
>(true);
}
