One of the very first things you want when you start writing macros is for auto-indentation to do the right thing. The IDE can't just know this for a macro.
Huh. I always thought Zmacs did an adequate job of this. Just know what &BODY means and give me COM-INDENT-DIFFERENTLY for special cases, and I'm pretty happy.
(Dan will of course know what I'm referring to, but for everyone else, the Zmacs command COM-INDENT-DIFFERENTLY -- bound to C-Tab, if memory serves -- could be used to manually cycle through a series of alternate indentation points for the current line. I'm not aware of an equivalent command having been implemented for GNU Emacs.)
