Subject: 28.0.50; rst-mode fill-paragraph broken in bullet-lists
Date: Thu, 4 Feb 2021 21:09:49 +0100

The indentation in a text block in a bullet-point entry is removed if it
the 2nd lines starts with a RST directive, e.g. :math:. If you run
`fill-paragraph` when `point` is somewhere on the first paragraph, the
indentation before the 2nd line is lost. This is neither the case for
the 2nd nor the 3rd bullet-point entry in this next example

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

I can reproduce this in Emacs 29, too -- it seems to be because :math:
is matched by:

    (fld-tag ":" fldnam-tag ":") ; A field marker.

which is part of 

    ;; Paragraphs (`par')
    (par-tag- (:alt itmany-tag fld-tag opt-tag fncdef-tag-2 dir-tag-3 exm-tag)
	      ) ; Tag at the beginning of a paragraph; there may be groups in
		; certain cases.

which is in

  (setq-local adaptive-fill-regexp (rst-re 'hws-tag 'par-tag- "?" 'hws-tag))

I've added Stefan to the CCs; perhaps he has some comments.

Thanks, I never saw that.

That is - on this level of syntax analysis - really an ambiguity in
the syntax of reStructuredText. See
https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html#field-lists

See the example. The line starting with ":Indentation:" is the same
case and the example indents it correctly.

I think you could resolve the ambiguity by suffixing the ":math:"
instead: "`\kappa`:math:" should work.

Thanks a lot.

This is really a corner case. I'd say: Won't fix.

OK; closing this bug report, then.
