I've recently started using this (not for my own code yet, but for a
contribution to the Python core), and "Auto-Expand tabs" work well for
indenting, but dedenting is indeed a matter of backspace four times :-(.
I haven't found a shortcut or modifier to do that yet. This is BBEdit
6.5, dunno about 7.
