This is actually the question that bothers me too. I think we need to separate "visual" indentation for word processing from "semantic" indentation for coding. The former should be serialized to something like HTML or LaTeX, and the latter to plain text as it is done now. IOW, I think the path to word processing in Emacs lies in html-mode improvements.
