[Bf-taskforce25] Proposal to follow PEP8 for all python scripting for Blender 2.5

[Dalai Felinto]

"please make the tab key behaviour optional.
"
+1

But I don't think any feature will raelly be dropped. Specially because the
text editor is also used for other stuff (e.g. GLSL custom shaders, 2D
Filters and Dome warp mesh data).
