<pre>
    We recently started using clang-format in the c-ares project: https://github.com/c-ares/c-ares/blob/main/.clang-format

We have "AlignConsecutiveDeclarations" enabled, which yields nicely formatted variable declarations.  However, since we have a coding style requirement of 80 columns, function prototype alignment actually appears to cause more harm than good from a readability standpoint.  Due to the line limit restrictions, the formatting is inconsistent at best, aligning some parameter members and not others. 

Our feature request would be a flag to disable function prototypes from this alignment option.
