Indeed, that is another solution, but IMO has it's own drawbacks:
- As shown, the indentation is made by steps of 1 space.
- If you use a prefix argument (to avoid the above problem), it
becomes cumbersome.
The complexity of this method is also higher than having a simple,
easy to type command that indents the region to the next tab stop and
can be repeated several times in a row.
