I find that very handy when I am writing lists where list's text is
for 2-3 characters indented like this below:

- Something
  and more
  and one more line

For programming if you use programming mode, it will indent just
right. Which language is it?

To me it looks somehow weird if it is Fortran:
      
      program hello
!     This is a comment line, it is ignored by the compiler
      print *, 'Hello, World!'
      end program hello

As when I mark region and press TAB, somehow I expect different kind
of indentation. That looks weird now. I think it is bug in fortran-mode

Maybe you should M-x report-bug
