A good thought ;), but where should we put this? We would need:

o Indent left side  [40](%p)
o Indent right side [ 2](cm)
o Paragraph Indent  [10](mm)

This would now activate the input/selection boxes if you hit the check-button.
and insert the right source when needed or leave it out when not requested.
We then could read the old values inside the Indent left side params!
