In statement 1, I meant "I never want to let the indentation function *in Org*
apply to the entire file".

In statement 2, I meant "The function to indent the entire file can be writed
*by USER*, only if Org-mode's indentation function do nothing when current line
is in SRC block."

The indentation function Statement 1 is to Org-mode.
The indentation function Statement 2 is to user's.
Are they oposite?

I have readed the source of funcion 'org-edit-special', that's right the parsing
effort to figure out if we are is a SRC block or not cost too much. But I still
think it's worth. In face, I turned from muse, and muse is do like that.
