Comment (by coffee2code):

 I have this working, but what keypress should we capture to insert the tab
 character? A plain tab, or something like shift+tab?

 I worry if we simply do the plain tab that we cause issues with keyboard
 navigation. Granted, pretty much tab + any other key combo will override
 some sort of browser or OS behavior, but tabbing through a page seems the
 most common tab action (shift+tab to go in reverse probably being a
 distant second).

 Then again, I don't think we can intercept any other key combination with
 the tab since the browser (in the case of ctrl when there are multiple
 tabs) or the OS will take precedence.
