BRLTTY has no access to that information.  Tabs are always expanded into 
spaces on the screen and there is no way to tell if some indentation is 
made of spaces or tabs at that level. Only your text editor knows that.

I imagine that a vi or emacs guru would know how to make tabs into some 
visible characters though.
