In HTML's case, the indentation is added by the stylesheet.  It was
a stylistic decision I made when writing the original stylesheet.
If you don't want indentation, just change the stylesheet.

     pre.literal-block, pre.doctest-block {
       margin-left: 2em ;
       margin-right: 2em ;
       background-color: #eeeeee }

I suspect that it's a similar situation in LaTeX.  There is a
stylesheet for LaTeX, but there's not much in it and I don't know
how to alter it the way you want.
