subject [contrib #367] eclipse plugin should provide option to use tabs instead of spaces
code
what happened
Plugin does not provide option to use real tabs insteadof of spaces.
what expected I would really appreciate it if the Scala Eclipse Plugin had an option to use real tabs instead of spaces. By making it configurable how wide a tab has to be when displayed you can achieve the default of 2 spaces we have now. Moreover in normal Eclipse key-bindings mode it is easier to navigate indenting levels when real tabs are used. As far as I'm concerned it is a purely subjective personal preference how wide indenting levels should be and using tabs allows that.

contribution #367. Persoanlly, I think TABs are evil. I'm sick of badly formatted code due to TABs. At least spaces are unambiguous. Maybe we should discuss this.
