I've used python-mode and what I had to learn and I don't know if this
is nailing you was once an indent was arranged, when a new line is typed
only hit tab once. The python-mode for me then indented all code
correctly. If I examined the spacing of the indent and tried hitting
tab more than once (second guessing python_mode) that's when I got
myself into trouble. If this is nailing you, I hope this helps.
