  Yes, but the name is confusing, because it isn't raised for every
sort of indentation error if it's only used for tab/space problems:

try:
    1/0
        1/0
finally:
    pass

still would raise SyntaxError.  Should that raise an IndentationError
as well?  Or should IndentationError be named something else?
  (Just adding IndentationError for -tt isn't hard, I have a
preliminary patch for that now.  Adding it for the case above looks
harder.)
