The problem with such look-ahead with a regexp on the line is that it
will miss expansion of @value or user-defined macros. For example if we
have something along
@macro mymacro
aaa
@end macro
@indent @mymacro{}
The four spaces in the macro before aaa will be in the paragraph, though
it should be outside (I believe). In particular, this could potentially
mess up Plaintext indenting.
