This behavior is by design: when indenting an element, we keep the carriage
return, to allow the user to highlight different sections of the document
(e.g. if you indent a document such as
{container}
{node/}
{node/}
(!-- now some items -->
{item/}
{item/}
{/container}
you will get the same document, instead of
{container}
{node/}
{node/}
(!-- now some items -->
{item/}
{item/}
{/container}
)
Following your comment, we will add an option to enable/disable this behavior.

Noted.
Thanks for your feedback
