Makes the tab key act like a tab key.
In browsers, the tab key is used to move to the next item in a web page. However, some people would prefer it act the way it does in a word processor (i.e. inserting a tab).
=Notes=
*In order to use this in local files: on the Extensions page, enable "Allow access to file URLs" for this extension.
*If the tabbing works like it normally does in a browser and does not insert a tab, it is due to the extension not being loaded or non-standard text entry (such as a div).
*Using the disable tab feature: use Shift+Tab, this will cause you to go backwards to the previous element on the page (default function of Shift+Tab). If you press Tab now, it will be the default function of going to the next element.If you press Shift+Tab repeatedly, you will continue going backwards through the elements (like you normally would).

- (2014-02-07) Nick Foscarini: This is a must have extension. I'm always using markdown editors to write posts about source code, and you have to indent to control formatting. Not being able to add a tab was killing me by having to use the spacebar. Now I can use tabs. Thanks!
- (2014-01-31) Bob Magic: Would you consider opensourcing this on Github or something? I'd like to try and enhance usability such as "only if a textarea is focused and not input fields" and a few other odds and ends.
