Doh, I feel dumb now. Retesting now, I suspect that I indented with a
tab (accidentally had 'noet' set, and used <tab> to indent) at the
beginning of the line, and it landed the cursor on the right-side of
the tab and I misinterpreted that as not being at the actual start of
the line. Looks like it's all good.
