now that this has been done, emacs users might want to
add something like the following to their local configuration
(based on code by jwz, so it should work...)

:::

(defun python-mode-untabify ()
  (save-excursion
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (while (re-search-forward "[ \t]+$" nil t)
      (delete-region (match-beginning 0) (match-end 0)))
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (if (search-forward "\t" nil t)
        (untabify (1- (point)) (point-max))))
  nil)
 (add-hook 'python-mode-hook 
          '(lambda ()
             (make-local-variable 'write-contents-hooks)
             (add-hook 'write-contents-hooks 'python-mode-untabify)))
