It feels fair for the ROM terminal emulator just Be 80x24, and if someone is writing their own terminal emulator they can encode their own tab logic. ;-)
I would personally use one bit per column for tab stops, unless you anticipate needing other column attributes to justify the full byte. Many terminals supported a bell upon crossing a column, but that's because they printed on paper and would just hammer a hole in the paper at the right margin if you didn't CR.
