There should be a possibility to tell emacs not to use TAB
characters at all. In my "jed" editor, it is the user-settable varible
USE_TABS
DESCRIPTION
If `USE_TABS' is non-zero, the editor may use tab characters
when creating whitespace. If the value of this variable is zero, no
tabs will be used.
As "jed" is sometimes described as an emacs clone, I expect something
similar in emacs.
OTOH, it would be nice, if LaTeX tolerated TABs in the *.bib file....
