Who's bright idea was it to bullet release notes like this:

CODE
* feature
**subfeature
***subfeature
This is VERY confusing and hard to read. How about using more white/blank space (tabs, spaces) like this:

CODE
* feature
* subfeature
* subfeature
Or, better yet, use #s/letters/Roman numerals to better differentiate/separate features and descriptions:

CODE
1. feature
a. subfeature
i. subfeature
Turning on HTML code and using <pre></pre> might retain the original formatting. Surely there's a way to prevent spaces/tabs from getting removed from forum posts, too...

Unfortunately as you've now found out, leading spaces have a tendency to get lopped off in this and certain other non-fancy text media.

In any case, thanx for the suggestion!
