I am using ConTeXt LMTX 2018.05.19 21:46. Consider the following MWE:

\starttext

\startLUA
    whatever
\stopLUA

\stoptext

In contrast to ConTeXt MKIV, the leading four spaces in front of "whatever" are not removed when processing the verbatim text:

MKIV output:

whatever

LMTX output:

    whatever

Is there a way to get the old MKIV behavior back?

Cheers,

Christoph
