My first guess is that it should by default align arguments, but then have 
some special cases where it doesn't, such as with `defn`.

Though, I can see that if you add special cases, the plug-in would probably 
be better named "ClojureIndent" rather than "LispIndent" (which may imply 
"Common Lisp", for that matter).

I don't know if the Emacs clojure-mode is user-configurable in that way. I 
haven't needed to change it. Most Clojure users seem to indent in pretty 
much the same way, fwict, which is probably pretty close to how Emacs does 
it automatically. I haven't tried Eclipse.

If you want to try out Emacs to see how it does indentation (for comparison 
to LispIndent), I wrote a quick guide that might be useful for you:
