? A tabulation is always a special char, never "a few spaces". Use "View Formatting
Characters" to see that. But maybe there's a problem in RTL text and tabs?

... because this is how Qt does it. Take this to qt-bugs if you feel
it's wrong. Or should KWord do it differently because it has more capabilities
