Right, the problem is that we need some post-check for block-start searches.

python-rx (like rx in general) is just a syntax for Emacs regexp, and it 
doesn't support lookbehind or etc.

After some edebug-ing, the patch below seems to fix this case. Maybe 
other uses of (python-rx block-start) need this treatment as well, but 
I'd like to leave that to someone who comes later. And a lot of them 
happen after a (back-to-indentation) call, so those seem covered too.
