I can reproduce this. The problem is that in some cases, the
code that does the indenting (by inserting space characters) doesn't
really check if it should indent or not.
Sometimes it checks for a preceding newline character, but since
`widget-specify-insert' narrows the buffer, it can easily fail to detect
that "\n". Sometimes, it doesn't check if it should indent at all, like
in `widget-editable-list-format-handler'.
I propose the attached patch, that introduces a function to perform the
necessary checks before indenting, and then uses it in all places I've
found is necessary.
Best regards,
Mauro.
