Right, but in the use case described, the `C-o' is followed by `C-n', so
it's just to suppress faulty re-indentation, apparently.
And I think that's a valid use case -- Emacs does get these things wrong
now and then, and having an escape hatch readily available seems
useful. Perhaps the doc string of `RET' (i.e., `newline-and-indent' in
most modes) should mention (and link to) to `C-o'?
