The app is using formtastic to generate the textarea. I've watered it
down to the barebone code provided in the first post.

If we can unindent the <%= render 'unindent' %> to align with <html>,
then we have a winner. So far I fathom that this is not possible. Work
around would be to apply some js solution on the <textarea> to keep
the formatting we want.
