currently there's no nice way to use both tabs and multi-line strings, otherwise tabs are ok for most things

Describe the solution you'd like

i would like tabs to be stripped the same way spaces are stripped from multiline strings

Describe alternatives you've considered

i'm not aware of any good alternatives to this

Additional context

This is impossible without making a new version of the nix language as it would break compatibility to change in the current language. Such a thing as a language version is being worked on, but it is work in progress.
