The "edit-tab-stops" function does not respect my setting of "tab-stop-list" in a file, containing at the bottom:
;; Local Variables:
;; mode: text
;; tab-stop-list: (20 30 40 50 60)
;; End:
I am using:
"GNU Emacs 24.4.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0, NS apple-appkit-1265.21)
of 2014-10-20 on builder10-9.porkrind.org"
I can fix this, by modifying the "edit-tab-stops" function in "indent.el" so that the line:
(let ((tabs tab-stop-list))
is before the line:
(switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "*Tab Stops*"))
With this change, my edit of the tab stops starts with the values present in "tab-stop-list" in the current buffer. Without this change, each use of "edit-tab-stops" starts from no tab stops set.
I've checked the version of "indent.el" at:
http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/emacs/lisp/indent.el?root=emacs&view=markup
and it would draw the same complaint from me.

I never used that feature, but I can't find anything wrong in what you
say, and the current behavior doesn't seem useful indeed. I suggest to
make a bug report.
Regards,
Michael.
