I also found tens of thousands of tabs when searching just *.h in /src. Now I wonder: should we do a massive search & replace on the full code base? I've tried and it compiles nicely. It also doesn't mess up the indenting, at least not in the places I've looked at. Is it worth it? Or will it give to much troubles in the end afterall?
It's not a bad idea, but in general it messes up a lot of people on distributed version control and those who have checkouts. In general, it's best to do these type of changes right after a release when the codebase is already frozen.
