Yes, the cursor is set by Scintilla in this case. We can work around
this by checking whether a TAB was inserted and decrease the cursor
position by one. But is this really necessary?
Might be this would confuse users and raise other problems. By the way,
SciTE does the same.

I'll have a look at Scintilla's documentation, maybe there is a setting
to configure it.

Enrico
