You can do something like this to retain indentation:

<ul><!--
     --><li>this</li><!--
     --><li>that</li><!--
     --><li>the other</li><!--
--></ul>

I know it's not CSS, but it solves a problem that initially appears to
be with CSS.
I remember when I first came across it and it confused the hell out of
me.
