In Javascript, is it OK to put the ternary operator's `?` on then next line?

Question

I really like aligning the ? and the : of my ternary operator when they don\'t fit on a line, like this:

var myVar = (condition
    ? ifTrue
    : ifFalse
);

UPDATE: This answer is outdated now. Apparently Crockford changes his mind ;)

See @CheapSteaks's answer for the update.

Per Crockford:

Place the break after an operator, ideally after a comma. A break after an operator decreases the likelihood that a copy-paste error will be masked by semicolon insertion.

So:

// this is ok
var myVar = (condition ?
    ifTrue : 
    ifFalse
);

If you run this sample code through JSHint, this will pass:

// this is ok
var myVar = (1==1 ?
    true : 
    false
);
