I have been struggling with this as well.  After reading this email, I
gave it another try.

Unfortunately, unless I am doing something wrong, none of these options
seem to really restore the previous behavior.  I have set
~org-adapt-indentation~ to ~'headline-data~, and now pressing RET goes
to column 0.  However, unfortunately, TAB now no longer jumps to the
indentation level of the previous block (for example, so I can insert a
code block or other block structure into a plain list at the correct
level).

I am finding all of this /extremely/ annoying, and if I am being honest,
quite obnoxious behavior, which is the last thing I usually expect from
Emacs.
