I got myself confused between Ctrl-Alt-L and Ctrl-Alt-I.
However when you are working on one line (maybe I copy-pasted something and
it isn't indented right, or I clicked on an empty line and the cursor is not
at the right indentation level) I think my first reaction is to use tab to
indent the line correctly (in the first scenario I would have to go first to
the first word beginning).
I am suggesting that Tab could indent the current line properly in one
keystroke just like Ctrl-Alt-I but keep the current caret position. I think
it would be a nice addition to the current SmartTabs. People that do not use
tab could use this as well (like me).
Emacs offers this. Pressing tab in a word or inside the leading indentation
space will indent properly the line.

Might be a bug).
