I've been using similar templates, with indented %i. I wasn't aware of what
the doc said about it, but I never had the text indented. Always only the
first line of text (with git versions taken every week or so).

Now, I don't mind anymore, as I've switched my way of writing, and stick to
beginning writing text at column 0, whatever the heading level.

But just wanted to confirm you this seems, then, a bug to me (regarding what
the doc promises).

Best regards,
  Seb
