D'oh.  That's the global key binding.  Let's see...  With:

(local-set-key [TAB]
               (lambda ()
                 (interactive)
                 (message "TAB: %S" (this-command-keys))))
(local-set-key [?\C-i]
               (lambda ()
                 (interactive)
                 (message "C-i: %S" (this-command-keys))))

(global-set-key [tab] nil)
(global-set-key (kbd "TAB") nil)

(define-key function-key-map [?\C-i] [TAB])
(define-key function-key-map [tab] '[TAB])

Then indeed everything seems to work?  So I guess this would be a
practical solution?  Unless I've missed some combinations to test.
