Do you think that'll be enough?  What do we do when we open a file that's 
already indented in a way that doesn't match what our own indentation function 
would do?

Or do you mean that we need a new "indentation analyzer" for each new mode that 
tags spaces as "alignment" spaces vs "indentation" spaces?

One more tricky case, from playing with this a bit more: in OCaml, it's not 
entirely uncommon to see this:

  match o with
  | None   -> 0 (* Note the extra spaces to line up the arrows *)
  | Some x -> x + 1
