Yes, the problem is that the fold start marker is paired with the first 
fold stop marker that has the same indent -- so for non-indented 
languages (like latex) it's not very useful, at least not if you want 
to fold nested structures (folding patterns should probably be set to 
only match elements that doesn't nest, like only entire sections or 
only item lists).

I do however plan to lift this current limitation, but it's not that 
simple, because initially the indent requirement was actually 
introduced to solve the problem with languages where the end token can 
appear in contexts where it isn't marking the end of a fold.
