      (3) The units of a document form an ordered tree with the order

          number of spaces preceding the first non-space character on
          the first line of the unit.  The root is an empty unit with
          level zero which nominally appears at the beginning of the
          document.  A barrier between two units is a unit appearing
          between those units which has level no greater than that of
          the unit appearing first.  One unit is a descendant of
          another unit if it appears after the latter, has strictly
          greater level, and is not separated from the latter by a
          barrier.

I'm reluctant to make indentation matter, since that could interfere
with the rulekeepor's ability to make formatting changes.  I'll give
this some thought, though.
