Hi Org,

[I'm a non-subscriber, please CC me in responses.]

I write lots of of prose and poetry in org. I have noticed that verse blocks fail to export indentation to odt files. Indentation is a fundamental aspect of poetry/verse. For a long time I used the fork of the odt backend, because it didn't have this issue and had various other improvements, but recently it had its own problems and I would like to switch back.

I can repro this issue from `emacs -q`:

make a verse block like so:

#+begin_verse
a line
  an indented line
       another indented line

    of oh such swanky verse
#+end_verse

then `C-c C-e o O` to export to odt and open.

"a line" exports with no preceding whitespace, other lines export with only a single preceding whitespace.

i know elisp, and would not mind hacking on this, but i don't know org's codebase nor much of anything about odt.

Org mode version 9.8.3 (using an emacs-30 built from source, in emacs -q i'm using built-in org, not a newer version from straight or the like).

test org and odt files attached.

thanks.
