I agree with the suggestions of Carsten. The thing with the tabs is that only advanced users know how to handle them, e.g. switch from tabs to spaces and so on. Since DUNE might also be used by rookies in UNIX stuff (let's remember that we are not writing papers on UNIX) I think it would be very useful to have a common (i.e. no tabs in source files) rule and we provide help to configure the editor of choice in that way. 

@Elias: Tell me more about the advantages of tabs (except makefiles) please. I never really understood what they are (were) good for. And I always was too lazy to look it up.
