Sublime Text - ignore tab settings for specific file types

Question

Is it possible to have Sublime Text 3 ignore the "translate_tabs_to_spaces" settings for specific file types (namely .tsv, .csv and .txt)?

Additionally, is it possible to have ST3 not translate tabs when pasting? eg, I might copy text from a .tsv and paste it into a new file. I want to preserve the tabs. Right now, this involves changing my preferences, pasting, then changing back those preferences.

Unsure about the pasting, but you can set syntax specific settings by going to Preferences -> Settings - More -> Syntax Specific - User. You can also check out https://github.com/randy3k/SyntaxMgr
