>From the Ubuntu bug report:

"
Pressing the tab key in "overwrite" mode, deletes the char after point, and
indents. While this is logical and correct, it may not be what the user expects.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Write some text ("abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz").
2. Move the cursor to the beginning.
3. Press <insert> to activate overwrite mode, if not already enabled. press tab.

Actual behaviour:
The first letter (in this case the letter 'a') is replaced with the tabulator.

Expected behavor:
Not sure, one of the following I guess:

1. Insert a tab, like insert mode.
2. Skip to next tab stop without changing anything.
3. Skip to next tab stop, deleting all text between cursor position and next tab
stop.
"

Gnome gedit does 1. "Insert a tab, like insert mode"
