Description Randy Hudson

given:
switch (value) {
    case 0:
       return;
       break;
<<CARET>>
}

If you press TAB at the CARET, 2 TABS are insered.  Then, if you BACKSPACE, 
both tabs are removed.  It is too hard to get to the proper indentation (1 TAB).

not a dup - the problem here is that the indentation inside a 'case' is two
units, but the user actually wants to start another 'case' and therefore just
one unit

actually, this *has* been requested before.
