After seeing an argument in a review over someone using a five-space tab

how about no tabs at all. With the exception of fortran and makefiles
let's hang tabs out to die a cold, unloved death.

Yes, please! Especially half-mixed specfiles are fun. Isn't there an
emacs/vim mode for specfiles that could be modified to automatically
untabbify specfiles upon the next edit?

... and tab sensitive portions of a spec (such as Makefile fragments)
will be corrupted ...

There are people embedding Makefile fragments into specfiles?
I don't have an example at hand.

How many
specfiles are there this way and how many packagers do we have to
brainwash to not do that? :)

There is "brainwashed" in appending/cat'ing tab-sensitive Makefile-/Fortran/sh/text etc. fragments in rpm specs.
