I have also concluded that the editor settings "smart tabs" should be

| symbol denotes cursor pos, and "stupid tabs" enabled, and "auto indent"
disabled and tab indentation set to 2, tabs set to "spaces".
eg:
if Accept then

.... I press ENTER...
no auto-indent => so you are on the first column => so far nothing
wrong? (you have not used the tab key, so you should not expect any
action from it)
I updated the help:

Hope it is more understandable now.
if Accept then
begin

1 2 3 4 5
1 begin of line
2 first word "begin"
3 end of line
4 next word, but 2 lines above (first line long enough)
5 end of line but 2 lines above
