I've also noticed that a lot of the <screen> contents are indented as
part of the markup, but when output in HTML, each space it recreated
as it ends up in either <code> or <pre> tags.

<programlisting> contents seem to have been intentionally entered so
that they break with the indenting style so they're output correctly.
Shouldn't tags such as <screen> follow the same style so that they can
also avoid unintentional leading whitespace?
