I think we should not do this. We should use 4 space indents for new files, but existing files should not be reindented. If you reindent, much of the history of the file is essentially lost -- "svn blame" will blame whoever reindented the code, and it's a pain to go back. I believe "svn blame -x -w" ignores whitespace changes. Sounds like Uncle Timmy's whitespace management needs to become a little more draconian.
