When should it do that? At all times? And enforcing the estimated  
indent for all lines in your document?

There is no such “feature”.

If however you often wrap code in an if loop, you could create a  
snippet which wraps the selection and adjusts the indent. There is a  
begin … rescue … end snippet in the Ruby bundle which does that --  
select text, press ctrl-shift W, and it will “wrap” the selection in  
begin/rescue/end when the wrapped text given an extra indent.
