I know what I would like to see in an editor:
First, it autodetects whether the module uses
tabs consistently, spaces consistently or a
mixture. If it uses tabs consistently, it then
uses the current default.
If it uses spaces consistently, it should also
autodetect the indentation setting in use in
the module and offer to change it if it's
different from the current default indentation
setting.
If it's inconsistent, it should make an attempt
to deduce the model the creating software
used; if it can it should change it to the
default setting without complaining. Otherwise
it should complain.

Sounds like WingIDE to me. I'm a recent convert, but one feature that
impressed me was the instant warning I got when I indented code with
spaces in a tab-oriented source file.
