Description:
------------
The function setTab() does not work properly for html outputted by HTML_Table. This is because a setTab request does not descend into the _tbody, _thead and _tfoot objects. Therefore anything outputted by an object of the HTML_Table_Storage class will use the default tab (the \t character).

Suggested solution:
HTML_Table should override the setTab() function and call setTab on _tbody, _thead and _tfoot.

Test script:
---------------
$t = new HTML_Table();
//Set tab to a double space
$t->setTab(" ");
$t->addRow(array('a', 'b', 'c'));
echo $t->toHtml();

Expected result:
----------------
Double spaced table:

<table>
<tr>
<td>a</td>
<td>b</td>
<td>c</td>
</tr>
</table>

Actual result:
--------------
Table is spaced by \t characters

<table>
<tr>
<td>a</td>
<td>b</td>
<td>c</td>
</tr>
</table>
