I guess anyone with files with tabs in but Spaces Indent Type enabled
could set a tab width equal to the indent width for compatibility.

I think the SCI_SETTABINDENTS message just tells Scintilla to indent
instead of inserting a tab when the tab key is pressed, so this could be
left on for every case.
