I don't care either way, the main question is whether to override the usual binding. What binding did it have in Emacs 21? And why was it changed? I believe it's a side-effect of a change I made a while back which changed the global indent-line-function from indent-to-left-margin (used for paragraph-indent-text-mode) to indent-relative (used for the "new" text-mode, formerly known as indent-text-mode). In that case, since it was not changed intentionally, definitely let's change it back.
