Well, if someone wants to delete all their work, they can press backspace or
delete. It's way more crazy to have everything overwritten by pressing TAB
rather than 
"oh shame something has changed, I wanted to delete it but instead I indented
it".

I don't feel charitable in my response, so I'm going to say again, don't let
technical developers make usability decisions on this product. Use latex if
they are obsessed about document production. This product can't even reach the
number of pages to publish a book without crashing, so this idea of perfection
is way off at this stage.
Cater for user first, then the rare power user as an "option".


This is why Libreoffice still remains a WONTUSE product ten years on.
