I still did not find specific solution for this.

I would like spaces in new lines to align to first word after ❰    ❱

What I need is similar to following condition:

       Somewhat indented text RET
       in the next line follows
       aligned to the first word

❰    ❱ Then in this line I would like that ❰    ❱
       is ignored so that next line get aligned
       to the first word in this paragraph "Then".
