Forgot to add that I also began to think placing the image in the background as 
opposed to an inline element would be more semantic/accessible. I think I might 
have to revert to just using an inline image (it wasn't originally contained in 
an li) but I would still love to know what text-indent isn't behaving right 
when the link has been set to display block.
