I understand your idea, but one of the reasons with nitpick so much 
about indentation is that it makes it hard to review a patch. For 
example, this chunk:

It doesn't really change anything, but the reviewer need to double-check 
if there isn't anything that have really changed. In the changes in 
libavcodec/utils.c in particular, the mixing of indentation and 
functional changes makes it hard to read.
