I assumed that. The "error" is just in front of the screen. But I tried 
to understand.

I understand and like the behaviour now. No need to re-configure 
anything.
TAB work in some very restricted situations where it is (in python 
meaning) allowed.
e.g. you type this two lines

def foo():
     """

after hitting RET the cursor is in the next (3rd) line but on first 
character/column.
Now you are allowed to hit TAB and it works a "Tab" (4 empty chars) are 
inserted. Hitting TAB again the cursor jumps back to column 1.
Great! So intelligent and powerfull. That is why I migrate (my brain) 
from vim to emacs. :D

btw: It would be great if you could add your answere here
