A better solution to what problem? If vim automatically indents
properly when you add a new line, what difference does it make
whether it leaves leading spaces in that line you left or not?
If you want to leave a blank line and add properly indented text to
it later, you can resume editing that line by typing S which should
automatically move your cursor to the proper indentation.
