Look at that commit it is not clear what the intention is.

The behaviour in emacs 24 and before looks sane. I have a hard time
getting used to this change. Previously noindent means no indention now
it seems to mean any indention. And there are exceptions for example
lisp modes don't adopt this behaviour. Any ideas why?
