--- Comment #3 from Stéphane Guillou (stragu) <stephane.guillou at libreoffice.org> ---
The default marker (when no discrete tab stops have been defined) is the
smaller inverted T ("up tack"). Once you define discrete tab stops at various
positions with various Types, you will see bigger markers used instead, which
allows us to tell them apart.
This was the same in OOo 3.3.
I don't think it's possible to change the default tab type for the whole
document / the whole of Writer, there is no option in Tools > Options >
LibreOffice Writer > General.

If the default, small up tack marker is changed to reflect the default left
Type, we'd have to make sure it also works for when using complex text layout
like RTL (automatically changed to right Type).
UX/Design team, what do you think?
