If the tab is retained I think most uses of 'cut' keep working. The
only exception I'm aware of is this:
$ guix build --quiet --keep-going \
`guix package -A | cut -f1,2 --output-delimiter=@`
Since 'cut' splits on the tab you end up retaining the padding spaces
from field 1 resulting in, say, "guile @2.2.3" instead of the
desired "guile@2.2.3".
