Deprecate tabs for indenting (was Re: Indenting with tabs vs spaces)

[Peoter Veliki]

Perhaps this is besides the point of the original posting, but......

With tabs, each person can set the indenting width to whatever value he/she
likes best.  As one person pointed out, a tab is a variable.  This
flexibility is tantamount to a "separation of style and content".  This is
an argument *for* using tabs.
