Most other editors I commonly use would act as follows, which is what I 
would like as well:

1. Put cursor at start of a line of text.
2. Select the line by pressing <SHIFT-DOWNARROW>.
3.  Press <TAB>.

Expected behavior - The single selected line gets indented.
Leo behavior - the selected line and the next one down get indented.

To get the behavior you want, press Shift-End instead of the Down arrow.

This isn't a good idea because other editors don't act this way.  Some 
editors that act as expected:

- Editplus
- Notepad++
- VSCode
- Pyzo
- Atom

Leo shouldn't require a different motor operation for such a common action.
