Totally agree that we shouldn't do too "smart" things in Geany because these 
things can get really annoying. That said in this case where someone e.g. 
replaces all tabs with spaces I can't imagine why he would like to keep using 
tabs for indenting when he starts making changes in the document. I'm happy to 
hear a counterexample if you have one.

Geany already does a similar thing with line end characters - it both converts 
them to the new type and changes the line end type for the document.
