It's true that Tab and I prefer to use tabs for indentation and spaces for
alignment on the specs we co-edit. But since that's hard for other people
to deal with, I use and recommend spaces for indentation in projects with
a larger scope of contributors.

And yes, for tests we don't care, as long as you're consistent and use *some*
kind of reasonable indentation scheme (as opposed to none).
