More guidance for indenting, aligning in case statements.

Lots to consider. As an aside, I'm guessing you meant to format the last example like this:

   case env.method do
     :exceptionally_long_atom ->
       %{env | status: 400, body: Poison.encode!(%{id: "Sdds"})}
     _ ->
       %{env | status: 405, body: Poison.encode!(%{status: "error"})}
   end

Yes, you're right. Sorry about that. Still think that's ugly though, especially with more clauses.

The preferred styles for case statements based on the Elixir code formatter are:

case env.method do
  :get -> %{env | status: 400, body: Poison.encode!(%{id: "Sdds"})}
  _ -> %{env | status: 405, body: Poison.encode!(%{status: "error"})}
end

and:

case env.method do
  :get ->
    %{env | status: 400, body: Poison.encode!(%{id: "Sdds"})}

  _ ->
    %{env | status: 405, body: Poison.encode!(%{status: "error"})}
end

Hopefully the latter one addresses your readability concerns.
