Maybe the various opinions will share a small overlapping area of consensus; 
applying even a small improvement might be enough to make life easier.

That helps (even though editors should handle tabs for us) because it removes
the need to re-configure our editors when we switch projects.

Even those of us who fear emacs could probably run that script on changed .cc 
.hh files before each commit.  We will forget sometimes, but any reviewer 
comments on indentation could be a simple "Don't forget to fixcc.py before you 
push."

Maybe just let us fixcc.py on changed files on new commits.  
In any case, we will need to start using   git blame -w (ignore whitespace)
to research the history of the code.
