Do we also want an "untab" command that behaves like Shift-Tab? Presumably yes, for table cells at least. How should it behave in regular text? Or lists? LibreOffice Writer behaves oddly. 62554 1 jackalmage 2012-01-11 17:24:11 +0000 For the regular text case, matching the behavior of most decent text editors would be *awesome*. Specifically, when the selection covers multiple explicit lines, put a tab at the beginning of each line. Untab then does the same thing, removing tabs from the beginning of each line that has one.
