Actually I would read that as a clue that sometimes people are inattentive. =)

However, I do take your point. If we wanted to ditch the indentation,
then some chunks of the template trickery involved in the Todo list
could be done away with. I'm not necessarily opposed to the idea, but
I'm reluctant to go to yet more effort to un-hack it.

I'm also dreading the possibility that we go to the trouble to remove
the indentation, and a few days later somebody posts on the lists
saying "What happened to the indentation? The new version sucks!"
etc.

Cheers,
BJ
