I'm not following this thread at all, but can I put a strong vote
*against* tabs in, please. You're just asking for bug reports from
people who edit the file and expand tabs to spaces (either
deliberately, or via an automatic editor setting they forgot about)
and then can't see why a file that looks the same works differently.

OK, so it's not meant to be a human editable file, but that won't stop
some people :-)
