I presume you have org-hide-leading-stars set to t. If so, what looks
like indentation, is really hidden leading stars (see section 14.5 of
the manual). I am no expert but I would think that implementing what
you want would be difficult. If it really bothers you, perhaps you can
promote the tree to level 1 while you are working on it and then demote
it before widening again - I think this cure is worse than the disease,
but to each his own.

HTH,
