We have a few hundred thousand lines of code, and this strategy does not cause a mess. Like so many things, it's a matter of using it consistently.
I've been using SublimeText2 for a few days now, and really like it a lot. This issue with tab character vs indents is the only thing which might drive me back to XCode. I'm not asking anyone else to format their code in any particular way, I just want to configure the editor such that it will automatically format the code in the way I'm expected to format my code.
Maybe I'll have to figure out ST2 plugins to do it.
