You need to have 8 spaces tabs for the files to look correct.

So? Tabs *are* 8 columns. Just like pi = 3.14159..., c = 299792458 m/s,

I don't have any specific knowledge, and definitely no religion in this debate, but according to [1] (and I have no idea how valid the author's statements are), your point of view seems to be a bit *nix-centric. In the idea of trying to get more developers for Windows, wouldn't it help to find a "standard" that applies across all platforms ?
