But when do you really use tab in a blogging situation? I write for news sites, my own blog, friends blogs, the local NZ info tech, and I have never had to use a tabular indent for anything. I always use bullet points.

ps - I'm not a coder, just a WP advocate and a usability fiend. I run a company that setup wordpress sites for clients and make custom wordpress plugins. We do other stuff as well but I thought I would introduce myself and stay on topic :))

good work friends!!!

Whenever I'm using any WYSIWYG form, I'm in Word form: I expect tab to tab, CTRL+B to bold, etc.

I see your point of not tying down tab, but I think a lot of users would like to be able to easily make a tab space.
