Well, actually I would like to have the tabsize zero.
I just want to align with tabs, not add space.
These 2 things should not be combined.

Yes, although this would be no show stopper for me.

Looks nearly as I would like it.
If only I could specify a new block without adding a line without tabstops
then I would be very interested in these elastic tabstops.
Currently, whenever I change variable or parameter names
I have to (re)align manually which would be automatic with ET.

The other drawback of ET is, that all alignment is gone if you
view the code in an editor that does not support ET.
But if it would become more common, this issue may go away over time...
