Semicolon (or lack of)

Hi,
I'm using this great tool in my project and one of the standard procedures in projects i do is validate the code against JSHint (www.jshint.com)
What i notices is that almost none of the code is written with braces for IF statements and a lot of semicolons are missing.
Though these are optional it is considered a 'good' coding practice to be consistent and put semicolons in the code because it makes it less 'breakable' when ran for example through a minifier.
I can do this, e.g. sent you a pull request if you want? Or is a specific reason not to have them
no thx. I use lawnchair in mobile situations not fashion shows. latency and memory footprint are more important to me than conceptual purity.
Memory footprint has nothing todo with this, after the lexer is done parsing the script it 'automaticly' adds the braces and semicolons tokens as execution requires it to identify them... And even then i think this should then be a step when building the distributable.
Making the source version as (human) readable and less error prone as possible.. the minifier will strip it down to a bare minimum :-)
