I think that would be a good idea. The main idea of outdenting multiline
strings is to achieve better formatting of the source code.
And a is a lot more readable than b::
a = """
This is an example
of multiline text:
with indentation
"""
b = """This is an example
of multiline text:
with indentation
"""
