Having optional support for INDENT/DEDENT tokens would make parsing languages that require whitespace to define blocks easier.
Example:
do_thing param1, param2
if thing
do_even_more "Hello"
another_call "World"
and_finally "!"
Here an INDENT token would be placed right before do_event_more, but not before another_call as they're in the same indentation level. A DEDENT would be placed right before and_finally.
