You can also use a fixed-width area:

: ** a subheadline
: text

I'm not sure to understand. `org-indent-mode' is about virtual
indentation, not real one. So, there's no indentation to be inserted.

This is not possible. Escaping rules are explained in (info "(org)
Literal examples"), fourth footnote.

IIRC, this bug was fixed some months ago on development version.
