I personally just keep typing until my statement is finished.  This is my program, not PEP's.

But I have to say I'm amused by the whole question, and others related to PEP8.  A quick aside, the width of our roads all go back to the width of a two horse rig.  The suggested maximum of 80 characters goes back to teletype machines, and IBM cards, and character based terminals

Should that really be the basis for a suggested style now?
