Incorrect class member indentation influenced by base class specifier [message #894590]

I noticed my class members were being indented too much despite all the style options I tried. It seems to be influenced by the structure of the class definition, specifically the base class specification. Here's an easy way to reproduce in Indigo or Juno(20120614-1722) with any canned style (K&R shown).

Starting with a class defined like this:

class foo : public bar {
};

Hit enter after the open brace and you get one level indent:

class foo : public bar {
    int x;
};

But start with this:

class foo
  : public bar
{
};

Hit enter after the open brace and you get two levels of indent:

class foo
  : public bar
{
      int x;
};

The position of the : seems to be what confuses things. The formatter doesn't really like this style for the base class specifier (I have to format it manually), but that does not justify unrelated indentation errors, does it?
