I edited a proportional for coding, I’ve been using it for 10 years and it’s great except for tabular alignment.

So it would be nice if IDEs rich-rendered regions column aligned.

eg, object literals in JS, in which space separator are as a wide as needed to align the values.

JetBrains MPS has a decision table rendering for DSLs, which is similar to what I described.

Thank you anyway, that gave me an idea for implementing it.

Here's the prototype https://x.com/efortis/status/2039539455128686677
