Yes, Docutils replaces tabs with spaces by default.
There is a Docutils config setting:
`tab_width`
Number of spaces for hard tab expansion.
Default: 8. Options: ``--tab-width``.
but I don't know how this can be specified in Sphinx.
If you have the code snippets in code-blocks or literal blocks, tab
replacement is mandatory. If you include them from a file, there is the
"tab-width" option. In the SVN repository version, it allows to keep tabs:
``tab-width`` : integer
Number of spaces for hard tab expansion.
A negative value prevents expansion of hard tabs. Defaults to the
tab_width_ configuration setting.
IMO, it would make sense to implement a similar option to the code-block
directive in Sphinx.
