1. No.
2. No way it should be a different character.
3. Maybe it could be configurable. So if a user wants such
functionality, he will be informed about JavaScript. Besides that,
from W3C statistics, 95% users have JavaScript enabled. Anyway, if the
user has it disabled, he will get his default tab action :)

Is there a good
reason
for this or
just something no one got around to implementing?
If you are using Firefox, I think it's the default behavior of
this
browser (when IE insert a tab character) in an input
field.
Now, maybe we can catch the tab key event in some way... but I
will
let more WYSIWYG experienced guys answer for this ;)
It can be done. From JavaScript we can prevent the default behavior
of
the browser and add our own logic. But then we would have to ask
more
questions:
* do all the users expect the tab to indent?
* which character should be used? space or real tab. If space, how
many?
* what if the JavaScript is disabled?
