Code folding does not work as expected for python functions where the arguments span multiple lines. It only collapses the arguments themselves (which can be useful) but not the entire function (which is not useful).

Example:

def test1(foo, bar, baz):
    """folds entire function correctly"""
    print foo

def test2(foo,
          bar,
          baz):
    """only folds the arguments"""
    print foo

def test2(
        foo,
        bar,
        baz):
    """only folds the arguments"""
    print foo

class Foo(object):
    def test1(self, foo, bar):
        """folds correctly"""
        print foo
    
    def test2(self,
              foo,
              bar):
        """only folds arguments"""
        print foo
