Please avoid binding `tab`: the `tab` event (only generated under GUIs)
is supposed to be remapped to the TAB char-event (aka `C-i`) and this is
what you should bind to if you want your binding to work both under ttys
and GUIs.
More importantly, if you bind to `tab` than this binding will take
precedence over all other bindings to TAB, even those in keymaps that
have higher precedence.
The same holds for `return` vs RET, and `escape` vs ESC.

Hello Stefan,
I am aware of the unfortunate implications of these bindings.
Originally I avoided these bindings for the exact reasons you mention
and I hoped I could do without those (only binding RET/TAB and
remappings). However I have to use these keys since Org-mode seems to
override these keys too. Otherwise my keymap will not take precedence
over the Org-mode keymap.
