TAB in text-mode does that too. In general, TAB doesn't have particularly consistent behavior across modes, rather it has appropriate behavior in each mode, so what's most important is whether people like it or not. I don't hit TAB in change-log-mode very often, and can't see much reason for inserting tabs other than at the left-margin (which the new mode seems to do correctly) so the new behavior seems OK to me. -Miles -- 80% of success is just showing up. --Woody Allen
