ControlDesigner.GetPersistenceContent() - indentation

Hi!

The method “GetPersistenceContent” is used to supply
serialized data about
the setup of a control. This basically works for me.

My problem is that I want my subtags in CodeView to be
properly indented,
the way MS WebControls such as DropDownList are rendered.

Alas, my control's subtags doesn’t automatically get
indented. The first
sub-tag (line) is appended on the same line as the main tag,
the rest
comes below, without any indentation at all (right to the
left edge of the
page). Quite ugly, I think.

Obviously there is a way to do this properly, since
Microsoft's controls
get nicely indented.

I believe I need to get the current indentation state from
somewhere, to
decide what indentation characters I need to add to my
output string.
However, I cannot find where to get this information. The
object that
calls GetPersistenceContent is the likely answer, but how do
I get it?
