Prevent line split for keywords in perltidy

rodd has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Monks,

I'm trying to figure out how to prevent perltidy from splitting lines on certain keywords I may introduce, such as "has" (Moose) etc.

I'd like to avoid perltidy from breaking lines such as: 

has arg => qw(is rw isa ArrayRef), default => sub { [] }; # untidy

[download]

Into this: 

has
arg => qw(is rw isa ArrayRef),
default => sub { [] }; # nooooooo

[download]

I'd just prefer it like this: 

has arg => qw(is rw isa ArrayRef),
   default => sub { [] }; 

# much better, although I don't mind the indentation
# the crucial thing is the "has arg" part

    Hi

    Try -boc, --break-at-old-comma-breakpoints 

    $ cat 2
has arg => qw(is rw isa ArrayRef), arg => qw(is rw isa ArrayRef), defa
+ult => sub { [] };


$ perltidy < 2
has
  arg     => qw(is rw isa ArrayRef),
  arg     => qw(is rw isa ArrayRef),
  default => sub { [] };


$ perltidy -boc < 2
has arg => qw(is rw isa ArrayRef), arg => qw(is rw isa ArrayRef),
  default => sub { [] };
