Hi Stuart,

Whilst I don't have a problem with the + and many types of paragraphs
can be indented, I do find it a bit annoying to not be able to indent
literal blocks in the source.

OTOH I understand that making asciidoc accept block markups that don't
start in column 1 could break old documents, but it could be enabled
by a command line option.

My use case is similar to Grant's, ie enumerated list of instructions
with a sentence of text and a literal command block.  As a matter of
style (actually of human cognitive limitations) any complex
explanations are deferred to later sections using a (for details see
...).  That way users can easily step through the steps, especially
after the first time, or can consult the expansive :-) details at a
click on the link.
