I don't see upstream flipping the switch as the option comes from 
pre-4.6.0 days and nobody has ever complained about it. Also, I think that 
deviating from upstream defaults, especially if it is not a policy-related 
decision is extremely annoying as it destroys uniform behavior across 
distributions. Finally, if any particular user doesn't like 'fake half 
tabs' option she/he is always free to switch it off.

Dennis / Dmitry, if you agree, please close the issue accordingly.
