Keeping it consistent-by-individual should be enough, i.e you don't change your own style across your works, and if you do you should reflect the new style throughout everything else.
It's easy to see how quickly this can turn into a bikeshed debate. Regarding the tab widths, I'm curious to know how some of you handle pseudo source code, such as XHTML/CSS. Using 8-col tab widths in HTML can get ridiculous due to the nesting involved. Also, do you guys setup autocmds in vim for handling all non-code files, or do you set up autocmds explicitly for source code files and leave the default tabwidth to something more conservative? I work with such a mix of file types so frequently that I'm not sure which practise to apply by default.
