This may be your (not so humble :-) opinion, and I happen to agree that
a tab setting of 8 is best, usually. However, as Linus says in his
coding style document "Coding style is very personal, and I won't _force_
my views on anybody".

My editor has a tab setting of 8, but readers of this list have diverse
email clients, some of which do not display 8 spaces per tab.
