I've never had anybody turn down a patch by me because I had the wrong
number of indents, ore even call me on it, because the rules are not well
enough understood by us mere mortals (it's all in the indenter code).

Every time I've been called on indentation problems it's been because my
indentation is inconsistent within one indentation block.

I think if you always did 2 space indentation consistently nobody would
complain.

HTH,
