I think "this is indented deeper than the previous, and it wants to stay with the previous if possible" is an excellent heuristic, which you have below. I wonder if "however, the previous cannot be included in the hunk by shifting, hence we try to keep this together with it by favouring its exclusion from the hunk" could be part of the same heuristics, if you do have pre_indent value for a line at the boundary of shiftable block. Also I am wondering if 0 is a sensible thing to use as the fallback value. When pre_indent is not definable, turning it to 0 and declaring that our indented line is indented deeper than the previous line and penalizing with "bonus -= 4" (which you do) feels just as fishy as turning the undefined pre_indent to maxint and declaring that our indented line is indented shallower than the previous line (which you don't, but is just as justifiable, I would think).
