True. However, in all rule types that use rendered text, there is only a
space -- no tabs. Well, there are newlines, but that doesn't matter
unless you use special modifiers. ;)

Actually, this reminds me -- if Alex is writing his rule as a body rule,
the text parts are rendered and normalized. This effectively means any
number of consecutive whitespace (within a paragraph) will be condensed
to a single space.

Thus /a b/ and /a {1,5}b/ become identical.
