How do you do that when electric-indent-inhibit automatically becomes
buffer-local when set?

I'm with Jean. I find it an unpleasant experience when keybindings that I expect
to insert text to the right of the cursor, suddenly also changes text to the
left of the cursor.
I do use C-q C-j, but I'd like to reserve that for when I don't want the next
line indented. TAB usually works fine for reindenting the current line.
Is there any reason that having electric-indent-inhibit set to t globally is not
viable?
regards, Anders
