-nlp will tell indent not to indent to the open parenthesis.  I'm not
sure if there is an argument to to force a carriage return after an open
parenthesis.  With -nlp, this may look like the above, or may look like
this:

    foo_is_a_short_name = but_these_names_are_rather_too_long(argument1,
        argument2, argument3, argument4);

It would depend on whether or not argument1 runs over the line width.
