Tabs are not meant to align things. Spaces are used for that. You indent 
with tabs, and align with spaces. For example (___> means tab, . means 
space):

no indentation
___>indentation
___>|.column 1.|.column 2.|.column.3.|
___>|.field.1..|.field.2..|.field.3..|
___>|.field.4..|.field.5..|.field.6..|

If you only align with space, there will not be any problem regarding 
different "tabwidths", ever.
