Indentation of text in `{}` seems to depend on nesting of `[]`.

Description

The following program is indented with cmd-i:

#lang scribble/base

@list[@list[1]{
       Some text.
       }]

@list[@list[@list[1]{
                   Some text.
                   }]]

I would expect both instances of Some text. to be aligned with their respective list[1], but for some reason the second one is indented farther in.

Research direction

Reproduce the nested #lang scribble/base example in DrRacket and invoke cmd-i. Compare indentation of the two “Some text.” lines against their respective list[1] expressions; done means nesting in [] no longer changes indentation inside {}.
