The attached solution is horribly hack-ish, but I think does what you 
want. You need to use the "style=multiline" option and juggle the left 
margin settings a bit. Also, LaTeX wants to align the indented 
description term with the start of the definition of an unindented term, 
so I had to put some custom line spacing in to drag the indented items 
back to where you want them. There's probably a more elegant solution to 
be found somewhere.
