Then I find it wrong for the following reason:

- when I am typing:

** New
   
   ^ cursor appears here and that is wrong.

*** More
    
    ^ cursor appears here

So that is wrong because I have started writing the line at position 0
and you are counting it after stars.

If somebody however writes like this:

    ** New

Then it would be alright to indent as:


    ** New

    - here list
    - more here

but it is not alright to do this:

** New

   - new 
   - new

As that does not align with that what electric-indent really does.

I hope you will revert back that change as it is very
disturbing. Thank you.

Jean
