unfill-paragraph (region) and indentation

[Uwe Brauer <oub@mat.ucm.es>]

Hello

I am aware of various un-filling or un-wrapping functions (either for
the region or the paragraph) for example this simple one: 

(defun unfill-paragraph-or-region ()
  (interactive)
  (filladapt-mode nil);this is important, because
                      ;otherwise    the   result  is   distorted  by the
                      ;filladapt function stuff
  (let ((fill-column (point-max)))
    (fill-paragraph-or-region nil)
    (filladapt-mode nil)))              ;on again


However none of these functions unfills paragraphs (or regions) with
indentation

Hello this 
  and this

Will not be changed to 

Hello this   and this


So I wrote up a very simple function which does precisely that: it unfills
paragraphs with indentation. I am not sure whether it is sufficient
efficient. Any comments?

(defun delete-indentation-region (start end)
  "Unfills regions with indentation."
  (interactive "r")
      (save-restriction
        (save-excursion
          (narrow-to-region start end)
          (goto-char (point-min))
		       (while (< (point) (point-max))
          (delete-indentation nil)
		  (forward-line 1)))))
