Hi guys!

Sorry, but it's not that simple. The syntax of reStructuredText is
pretty tricky and it needs lots of good ideas to handle it. But it's
nice to write and read - and that's is why it IMHO is still a
worthwhile alternative.

If it would be as simple as you suggest, I would have built it in from
the start. There is a reason for not doing it. Indeed line blocks were
at the end of my list of supported reST features because I think they
are used rarely.

The function `rst-line-tabs' has a FIXME comment:

  ;; FIXME: Must consider other tabs:
  ;;        * Line blocks
  ;;        * Definition lists
  ;;        * Option lists

I guess the real problem is in that second line, that line blocks are
not yet supported.

I'll look into this.
