those are some pretty odd settings...  for Python autoindent would seem 
more natural than noautoindent, and noexpandtab means tabs have the 
unfortunate opportunity to live in your edited content - you're pretty 
much agreeing to not use the tab key in Python coding in that case.

Curious how you came to these?
