Summary: obscure indentation bug

Initial Comment:
BTW, as with all bug reports I submit, I'm available for pair 
programming to help fix it.

DrJava indents nested block statements poorly. For example, 
consider the schematic code block taken from real NextGen code:

if (...)
  for (...) {
    ...
  }

Note the lack of braces around the body of the if statement. 
DrJava will indent this code block as follows:

if (...)
  for (...) {
  ...
  }

Well, needless to say, that can be pretty confusing, especially 
when the body of the for loop is several dozen lines long (as was 
the case in the NextGen code block). :-)
