<quote> tags are important to set the correct quotation chars.

<acronym> tags are used to convert the enclosed text to capital 
letters, AFAIK (I never did any tests), and add
    <acronym class="acronym">...</acronym>
to the HTML output, which may be used in CSS stylesheets.
So right now they are not really important -- it's good style and 
correct if you use them, but nothing happens if you forget it.

By convention we use two spaces. Mixing tabs and spaces will make the 
XML files less readable, especially if someone uses a different 
editor.
