basket notepads - add simple indent (like kwrite) how difficult?

All,

  I have an idea to make the killer-app basket-notepads, that much better. When
entering notes, I use indent levels to format information in basic
heading/subheading style within simple text baskets. Basket currently lacks an
indent feature such as kwrite/kate have where pressing enter starts the next
line with the indent of the current line (similar to vim ':set autoindent')

  Since the code exists for kwrite/kate/quanta+ how hard would it be to add that
capability to basket? I guess it would be adding the kpart feature to whatever
the 'text edit' widget in basket is. Anybody looked at that code in kwrite/kate
to know what it is called or how difficult it looks to implement in something
like basket?

  That would be a killer addition to this killer app. Screenshot example:
