This has always bugged me. And I realize it’s not specific to Discourse. But it’s my understanding that Discourse is about ‘reimagining what a modern Internet discussion platform should be today’.
I’m wondering how other people handle it. I fully understand and appreciate the browser convention. This doesn’t change the fact that tab is valid content. Also, it’s preserved when copying and pasting content into the editor. I see it as 2 separate but overlapping issues.
The browser convention issue is resolved with…
But that leaves the content issue.
I’m not bringing this up just to be pedantic. I’m playing around with Discourse as a place to post code and markup snippets and this is something that does come up.
Cheers
