Kind of reminds me of LISP.  Lots of closing parenths, and often then
just all get stuck together on a long.  But I guess that's why they
invented paren matching shortcuts in editors.  To make it easy to see if
you have them matched up.  This works with braces too.  Perhaps there is
a plugin for Vim to jump back and forth between the beginning and end of
a blog?  Wouldn't be too hard to just look at indent.
