Cool, I saw it. But the function doc string was not touched? Maybe
that's often the first look-up for docs one does.

So this was a documentation bug. Is it only me who thinks a behavior
more like string-rectangle is expected with indent-rigidly? I think it
is a little surprising when a newline is inserted at exit.
