Oh right, I see, now we get:

some-really-rather-long-command arg1 \
                                arg2

rather than the old

some-really-rather-long-command arg1 \
    arg2

where continued lines were always just indented +4.

I'm accustomed to the old dumb method. A config var would make me happy.
