Visual D's 'smart' indent mode is great with {braces}, but not so good with
(parentheses). If I write something like this:

Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung = new
Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung(
    stuff,
    moreStuff,
    new MoreStuff(
        evenMoreStuff,
        ...
    ),
);

then it goes wrong:

- If I press Enter after the '(', it takes me all the way out to just right of
where the '(' is. Fair enough, it has to make some guess for the first line. It
would be nice for it to be configurable but that's not the biggest issue. Read
on;

- If I make sure the 'stuff,' line is indented as above (just one tab), then
press Enter *after* the 'stuff,' line, then it STILL takes me all the way out
to just under the '('.

When writing this kind of code, I would like Visual D to let me put the
'stuff,' line at any level of indentation I want, and for the next line to go
to that same level by default.

Switching to 'block' indent mode solves the problem - but that's less
convenient the rest of the time, because all indentation changes due to { and }
need doing manually.
