Thanks, but all this is futile.
This problem stems from the very bad design decision of using SPACE for 
two different purposes: (1) to preformat text, (2) to indent for keeping 
within list.
It's a dilemma that noone can write code to deterministically handle. 
The most trivial solution is to use something else for preformatted text.
Now I'm looking at the following piece of code from stdmarkup.php to 
change preformat markup. Just let me know if I need to check somewhere 
else to do this, any clue to reliably do this change, then you'll really 
be of some help.

Markup('^ ', 'block',
   '/^\\s+ #2/ex',
   "(\$GLOBALS['EnableWSPre'] > 0 && strlen('$0') >= 
\$GLOBALS['EnableWSPre'])
      ? '<:pre,1>$0' : '$0'");
