Proposal: extending object-curly-spacing with rules for empty objects

Tell us about your environment

• ESLint Version: v3.8.0
• Node Version: v6.7.0
• npm Version: v3.10.7

What parser (default, Babel-ESLint, etc.) are you using? default

Please show your full configuration:

{
  "rules": {
    "object-curly-spacing": ["error", "never"]
  }
}

What did you do? Please include the actual source code causing the issue.

var a = { }

What did you expect to happen?

I expected that the rules should complain about the stray space between the curly braces { }

I also think it would be a good idea to add a separate config for empty objects, since I think that people who have this rule set to "always" still doesn’t want any whitespace inside empty objects.

What actually happened? Please include the actual, raw output from ESLint.

No error was raised

Sounds great, thank you for the thorough response 👍

I’m not opposed to changing them all to "always" and "never" (in a backwards compatible way), though!
