Walter's reason for this is that 4-space indentation makes it
look bad
on Kindle and other small-screen readers.
My Kindle 3 has a 37 character screen width when using a
monospace font (i.e. code font). Trying to read code formatted
to 80 columns on it is just awful. While I don't expect anyone
to read Phobos source code on a Kindle, I do expect the ereader
version of the documentation to be read on the Kindle (or phone
or whatever ereader).
Isn't this problem better solved mechanically?
(If we used tabs for indentation, it would be as simple as
setting the tab width...)
