  1. Click the status bar to change the "Spaces" setting to "Tabs"
  2. Look in the Edit menu
  3. Reload Brackets
  4. Click to uncheck Edit > Use Tab Characters
  5. Look at the status bar

Result:
2 - Edit > Use Tab Characters is still unchecked, although status bar now says "Tabs"
3 - Edit > Use Tab Characters is now checked, matching status bar
4/5 - Status bar still says "Tabs," although Edit > Use Tab Characters is now unchecked

Expected:
Both reflect the current value of the setting.

Workaround:
Restart Brackets after toggling the preference to ensure both pieces of UI reflect the correct setting.

Assigned to me. Completely missed this menu during planning.

It may well be a reasonable "fix" to just remove that menu item...

OTOH eventually we'll definitely need some mechanism for listening to preference changes in general, since most of them will have more than one route through the UI where they could be changed...
