It also creates a minor annoyance when you get patches from users that

This seems to be common in the Windows world. It has the advantage
that you can adjust indentation width according to personal preference
by changing a display parameter (the tab width) without changing any
source files.
Unfortunately, it's incompatible with the Unix tab-is-8-column
"standard".
