If only tabs and *no* spaces were allowed at the beginning of lines it
would be very easy to check ebuild scripts for wrong spaces.

We could rip the required code from the Emacs Makefile mode, which
checks for suspicious tabs and highlights these areas when a user
tries to save the Makefile.

BTW, if a single tab was used in front of dependencies the output
would look like this:

tabwidth 4:

DEPEND="virtual/glibc
    virtual/x11
RDEPEND="virtual/glibc
    virtual/x11

tabwidth 8:

DEPEND="virtual/glibc
        virtual/x11
RDEPEND="virtual/glibc
        virtual/x11

IMHO both outputs look good, and with this solution developers could
still set the tabwidth to 4 or 8.
