Press tab [inserts 4 spaces]\r\n2. Pres left arrow 2x or click with mouse after 2 spaces\r\n\r\n**Expected behavior:** [What you expected to happen]\r\nI want the cursor to be after the second space\r\n\r\n**Actual behavior:** [What actually happened]\r\nCursor is either at position 1 or 5, but I can't go inbetween\r\n\r\nI want to be able to insert 4 spaces with the tab key, but I don't want enforced tab grouping for navigation, I want a plain simple space-wise stepping, positioning, selecting if there are spaces. I couldn't find any option for that. I tried setting tab size to 1, but then inserting 4 tabs with tab doesn't work anymore.\r\n\r\n### Versions\r\n\r\nAtom 1.8.0 Debian sid\r\n"}}
