The particular feature that the current line, i.e., the line on which one hits
RET, is re-indented, can be turned off by setting the variable
`electric-indent-inhibit` to `t`. (The name of this variable is somewhat
confusing, IMHO, because it suggests electric indent is inhibited altogether,
but in actual fact, as the doc string says, in inhibits *re*indentation).

With this feature turned off, which I find rather annoying myself,
electric-indent basically saves me from having to type TAB all the time. Even in
Python code, electric indent gets it right most of the time.
