Looks like there's a little tab-vs-spaces war going on within the dev team:

Tabs are evil!
Let the flame war begin!

I think it's less "tabs are evil" and more "Walter's indentation style is evil."  More power to Bartosz ;)

The only way to avoid a tab war is to make the only legal use of white space so horrid* that you can't edit the language without a pretty printer. Then everyone get there own way.

*the only valid WS is a single tab but only if it is needed to make things lex correctly.  <G>

Or you can restrict indentation to a single valid style.  Cf. makefiles.

No that won't work, somone might be able to stand that style. Then people would complain.

I always just throw beer at the problem and it goes away.
