Personally, I would hate that. That would muck with two spaces I
deliberately typed after the full stop before this sentence). Please
don't.
Emacs "M-x tabify" tends to do this and I found it unsuitable especially
for code (I am not complaining, it probably was invented for other
purposes and not reformatting code):
If you have original (the run of '>>..>>' is a single tab, '.' is a SP)
dcba....123
fedcba..123
gfedcba.123
and "tabify" the region, you would get:
dcba>>>>123
fedcba>>123
gfedcba.123
That is fine if you are shooting for minimum number of bytes, but often
it is not what you want in your code, especially when the part that
conains the whitespace "..cba 123.." is inside a string constant.
