I don't care to try and remember the cases where TAB is needed, because
hitting TAB is like second nature anyway, but at least C-y and M-d are
obvious cases.

They leave the code mis-indented because the action did not
trigger reindentation.

Off hand, things lacking compared to the ideal:
- the keys should be bound to self-insert-command.
- the user should be able to control the behavior via electric-indent-chars,
like with all other modes.
but as I said, it does satisfy the requirements.

It is very much part of electric-indent-mode (the default value of
electric-indent-chars is just '(?\n)).
