In this case I would normally mark the top and bottom of the altered block
and use the indent/undent option '>'/'<' respectively, i.e.,

	/* mark the top and bottom of the block as a and b */

	:'a, 'b <	(or >)

I must admit though to having encountered some difficulty with this
method when the tabstops value is set to something other than a full tab.
Still it can be quite adequate.
