\t and \n are single characters. Vim doesn't understand classes in [].
That's why I'm asking to add it :-)

Actually, Vim does understand classes in [] provided that they are
expressed using the [:class:] symbolism. Thus, to specify space, tab, or
punctuation you could use [[:blank:][:punct:]]. See about 30 lines below
":help /[]", and the example below the list of classes.
Currently \s inside [] matches backslash or s as is explicitly noted
under ":help /\]". I am wary of changing the meaning of existing
constructs (even deprecated ones like this one), it could break existing
scripts.
Best regards,
