I *hate* Python space-indentation. This is the reason I don't code with Python.
Editors could provide a lot of help here.

IMHO the following features, discriminant ones (!), could be interesting for more than one developer:
(a) being able to create a Python code with bracket-indentation and then, to use a command to transform the code to use
space-indentation,
(b) get a code with space-indentation and use a command to transform it into a code with bracket-indentation.

So, 
(a) is bracket-indentation to space-indentation transformation
(b) is space-indentation to bracket-indentation transformation

I imagine transformation (b) may be done on-the-fly when opening a Python file if developers have set a specific option
into NetBeans.

Thanks.
