Yes, this is not obvious from the docs... :)

Type Ctrl-Q before you type the tab key and a tab character will be
inserted. Ctrl-Q is used to insert the following character (whatever)
literally into the text - this is a standard keybinding for Emacs but you
probably don't know it if you're using other editors.
