Even though I will probably get the same response as shown here 
[1], I consider the most sensible (and imho the technically 
correct) way to be both:
- Tabs for indentation, because one tab is always one indentation 
level, regardless of the actual visual width.
- Spaces for alignment, because inside one indentation level you 
should be able to align code without interacting with the 
indentation level at all, keeping the two separate.

This way allows any reader to always have correct indentation and 
alignment, while still being able to choose how wide one 
indentation level should be rendered as.

As such: Smart Tabs FTW!
