While we're discussing probably-well-known-but-yet-unfixed bugs in vi,
I'd like to see 'R'eplace mode function correctly with tabs: if one
types over a tab it should shift the previously tabbed text to the left so
the poor user knows the next character typed will replace the character
after the tab, not the 2nd "space" character comprising the tab expansion.
