Double Indentation

I couldn't think of a good topic line.

Anyway, a thought I had: indenting doubly will register as the next line being on the same line, without having a backslash. For example:
mob
  proc
    stuff()
      world << "Hey look, I'm saying stuff and 
          stuff and junk and junk and junk and stuff"

would be equivalent to
mob
  proc
    stuff()
      world << "Hey look, I'm saying stuff and \
      stuff and junk and junk and junk and stuff"

Eh... this sounds hard to implement. The backslash is only one extra character to type, after all. Plus, with the backslash, you can see how much whitespace you're putting in. With the indentation, you can't see that whitespace.
