+ Configures the current indent
+
+ The current indent *is* just the current indentation level (unlike scope).
+
+ Example: ~
+
+ In Python, using the same example as for scope, current indent will
+ highlight the current inner most indentation guide. With scope disabled,
+ this will look like this:
+ >python
+ def foo();
+     if True:
+     ┋   a = "foo █ar"
+     ┋   #        ↳ cursor here
+     print(a)
+<
+ If we have the same code with scope enabled, it will look like this:
+ >python
+ def foo();
+ ┋   if True:
+ ┋   ┋   a = "foo █ar"
+ ┋   ┋   #        ↳ cursor here
+ ┋   print(a)
+<
+ If you have both scope and current indent enabled, and the two overlap,
+ |ibl.config.scope.priority| and |ibl.config.current_indent.priority| will
+ determine which is displayed.
