Now we're falling into personal stylistic nuances of which can be complicated by the display technology.

Keeping the line breaks and dropping the indents will suit one group and vice-versa. Certainly on print I prefer no break and small indents; though on other display devices I find it easier to read in different layouts.

In the future I hope we can get to the point where the style can be adjusted (within limits) by the end-reader as they see fit, in which case a whole new debate will rise up between publishers and readers.
