I do not care at all about TAB size... The only point I wanted to make is
that TAB should be used ONLY from the start of the line up until the point
where the indentation is. After that, SPACEs should be used. That way, we
are TAB-size agnostic.

TAB should only be used to denote indentation. If I want to add spaces in my
comments for example to do some ASCII art, I certainly do not wish them to
be replaced by TABs so that people with 'wrong' TAB sizes would see only
junk.

If indent does not support this, I vote for dumping the tool or to improve
it so as to not break stuff.
