I frequently use the Edit -> Advanced -> Format Document command (Ctrl-K, D) in VS2010 when editing HTML markup.

I’m working on a site that uses HTML5 structural elements (<nav>, <header>, <footer and so on) – but I can’t get Visual Studio to indent the tags’ content when reformatting the document.

I’ve explored the options under Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> HTML -> Formatting -> Tag Specific Options, and explicitly added the HTML5 elements I’m using to the “Client HTML Tags” section

but this doesn’t indent the tag content when reformatting.

Is this unsupported? A known bug? Some sort of configuration setting I’ve missed?
