I guess I'd simply find the unique set of cases that occur and create
a replacement for each manually. A handful of them or so may already
cover the majority of cases. CC'ing Joe since he deals with this sort
of stuff all the time.

Some cannot be handled with replacements, e.g. re-aligning the full
list is required to fit the longer `_iter` -- if you want to cover
those cases too, applying `clang-format` to the initializer may be a
good approach.

Cheers,
Miguel
