TextArea doesn't support the tab character because it doesn't support tab stops. Instead, Control-Tab key presses are converted to spaces. You can configure this via the tabWidth style. It doesn't currently work for pasting text containing tabs, though - this should probably be entered as a bug. > 2.

I believe there is a feature request for this already, but if not please feel free to enter one.
