The version of O O Writer I'm using is 2.4.0. It's definitely turned on. I was 
trying to insert a listing of a chess game, which is already numbered. When I 
tried annotating the game, I ran into trouble. As soon as I hit return, it 
indented the next line.

Maybe this is the way M$ users are accustomed to seeing it work, but I find it 
unintuitive and infuriating.
