Trouble is that source control gets tricky sometimes with trailing spaces.

I like auto-complete, & don’t want to give it up, but the behavior of
Tab at start-of-line is so counterintuitive I’d almost rather give up
the feature — or at least not have it active at start-of-line.  It’s
that annoying.

If start-of-line auto-complete is so useful, then auto-complete needs a
different shortcut.  I almost don’t care what, but Tab is a misfeature.
