I think that more important in kdelibs is to abolish tabs altogether in favour of \
spaces, as is proposed in the coding style policy. There will always  be people \
(particularly people new to KDE who are only browsing) who have their tab stops set \
differently from whatever is ordained for  kdelibs, and having a mixture of tabs and \
spaces is a recipe for a viewing mess. IMO, the indentation policy is by far the most \
important part of  the coding style proposal for maintaining readability.
