The reason for 80-column limit is due to historical reasons, IMO, but we could go with 4-space tabs and 100-column limit. I found with that setting almost everything can be fit on a line if need be. Anything bigger, I think there _is_ a better way to code a problem.
I'm against replacing tabs with spaces. It increases typing effort a lot and that is painful especially if you reindent a big hunk of code (and the indent tool is unusable without manual fixups).
