Painful experience makes me agree that the unindented nested %ifs 
decrease the readability of the spec file and thus would be in favor of 
this patch.
However, indentation seems to be uncustomary. On the other hand, it
doesn't seem to be explicitly forbidden, looking at e.g.

Any packager here that wants to throw in 2 cents?

None of your doing, but the contradiction between comment (F18) and
directive (F17) should be resolved.
