Like Mike, I found that the text to columns tool, using space as
delimiter, will separate the entry into columns. That seems to imply that
somewhere the tabs are changed to spaces. Also, pasting into a text editor
does show the tabs, and copying from there preserves them when pasting into
Excel, and they act normally and span columns.
I also tried fullclipboardData and rawclipboardData with no luck. There
seems to be something different about in LC's implementation. I found two
bugs that might be related:

I have no access to Excel at the moment, but I cannot believe that the
default field delimiter could possibly have changed from tab. May just as
well change the record delimiter from return
It would break just about everything.
