Is there something we can learn from python-mode? I haven't written python code since I started using haskell. If memory serves, my impression is that the indentation in python-mode worked more natural.

I like python-mode, but python layout is much simpler. Also, the behavior of the python-mode tab key is more predictable: it goes first to the rightmost stop that makes sense, then repeated clicks of the tab key move the cursor to the left one tab stop at a time. Again, I don't want to be too critical of haskell-mode because it is great to have it at all. I would prefer simpler behavior of the tab key, that's all. Maybe I can write it. -Mike
