Subject: 25.1; tab in bibtex
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2016 09:58:07 -0400
This is a request to change one of the default key bindings in
bibtex mode.  TAB is bound to bibtex-find-text.  This causes an
error when pasting text containing a tab character into a
terminal-based emacs.  Tab characters are often used for
formating in bibtex files, in particular in the output of the
conversion utility bibutils.

I suspect that bibtex-find-text is rarely used, since it does
almost the same thing as C-e in most cases.  I would suggest
having tab self-insert, and leaving bibtex-find-text without
a key, or possibly finding a new key combination for bibtex-find-text.
