While waiting for that someone to come up with that proposal (😉) what
do think about this:

+A closely relevant topic is indenting of text enclosed in square brackets,
+parentheses and other pairs. @AUCTeX{} offers two variables which control
+if indentation happens inside these pairs.
+
+@defopt TeX-indent-open-delimiters
+This variable contains additional opening delimiters which increase
+indentation. For example add @code{[} to this variable to get text after
+a square bracket indented.
+@end defopt
+
+@defopt TeX-indent-close-delimiters
+This is the accompanying variable to @code{TeX-indent-close-delimiters}
+decreasing the indentation again. This variable should contain @code{]}
+if @code{TeX-indent-open-delimiters} is set like described above.
+@end defopt
+
+@noindent
+Note that this is an opt-in feature, both variables are initially set to
+an empty string. In case you only have an opening square bracket in your
+text without closing it, you can put the closing part as a comment in same
+line in order to have correct indentation for the following text.
