It's not satisfactory. For example, try it on:
(progn
(find-file "/tmp/exemple")
(erase-buffer)
(insert "\n\ta\ta\n\taa\taa\n\taaa\taaa\n"))
Also, with my emacs configuration,
M-x replace-string RET TAB
tries to substitute a string of four spaces, not one tabulation.
Try:
M-x replace-regexp RET C-q TAB + RET SPC SPC SPC RET
M-x replace-string RET C-q TAB RET SPC SPC SPC RET

You never feed me.
Perhaps I'll sleep on your face.
That will sure show you.
