Subj : Auto-indenting wrapped text in a frame

Is there a simple way to automatically pad new lines of text with say, 6 leading whitespaces when wrapping text in a frame (i.e.: word_wrap = true)?

What I'm trying to achieve is adding such an indent to wrapped lines of dialog in MRC. I added a HH:MM timestamp recently, and think it would look nicer if the next line began after where the timestamp ended in the previous line.

Example of current state:

12:34 <codefenix> this is a long line of text which should autowrap when we get to this part of it

Desired state:

12:34 <codefenix> this is a long line of text which should autowrap when we 
      get to this part of it
  
|01<|09co|03d|11e|15Ÿ|11e|03n|09ix|01>|07
 

....Logic and practical information do not seem to apply here.
