I've found a few example cases where it doesn't match, even when it is 
the entire line.  (snip other stuff)

Original line: (viewed using :set list in vi)
   0^I^I0$

editfiles:
     { /home/jrhett/test/testfile
         DeleteLinesMatching "^0^I^I0"
         DeleteLinesMatching "^0^I^I0$"
     }

Neither one matches.  cfengine will never match two tabs in a row.  Two 
spaces is fine.  A tab and a space is fine.  But never two tabs in a row.
