Subject: indent: Option to honor existing newlines used for alignment even when
    no line width set

Package: indent
Version: 2.2.11-1
Severity: wishlist

I don't want indent wrapping lines for me, so I set -l0.  However, I
don't want indent *unwrapping* lines for me either; if I've already
broken a line in a particular location, I'd like that newline to remain,
and I'd like indent to apply its usual alignment rules for things like
function call arguments.

It seems like -hnl should do this, but since that would change the
(apparent) behavior of an existing option, this change will probably
require a new option.  I'd suggest -njl --no-join-lines.
