I mean what we do with code that is very nested so that the indentation
becomes a large amount of the maximum specified width (or even larger).

Then we should not end up with something like e.g.

(a (b (c .... (1;limit is here at the colon
               2
               3
               4
               5
              )
           )))


Michael.
