Currently when you use a tab in the editor it's 8 spaces and this is causing me issues in some of my files. A more reasonable default is 4 spaces as horizontal space especially in code editors is at a premium. 

It would be good to be able to configure this more fully but that's less critical than a "good" default.

Fixed

Now you need to tell the client to set the tabSize in the options object (the one used to create the editor) to 4.
