First tabs/spaces detection: it doesn't seem to work. I opened first
one of my files - it detected tabs correctly. Then I opened some other
Python code, which used spaces - status bar kept saying it's tabs and
used tabs, instead of spaces. I had to change it explicitly.

But this completely different what I imagine: when I open someone's
code, I wouldn't like to care, if it's tabs or spaces. I hate using
spaces, because it makes me type a lot more. So instead, I would like
the editor to hide it from me. I would see tabs, although underneath
the code would use spaces. Is such a thing possible?
