Description

Before indentation:

#lang scribble/text
@list{
foo
}

After:

#lang scribble/text
@list{
 foo
}

Note the space inserted before "foo", which changes the data represented by this at-expression. Since whitespace is meaningful inside curly braces, the indenter should always leave those sections alone.

Research direction

Reproduce the indenter behavior using the #lang scribble/text and @list{} example from the issue, checking that whitespace inside curly braces is preserved. Done means indentation no longer inserts a space before textual content in at-expressions; the issue does not name a file or test to begin with.
