What do you guys think of this: http://nickgravgaard.com/elastictabstops/
"The problem is that we're using tabs and spaces to format text for aesthetic reasons rather than treating them semantically - tabs are for indenting and aligning text, spaces are for separating keywords."
There's also a demo applet and a screencast: http://nickgravgaard.com/elastictabstops/#tryitrightnow http://nickgravgaard.com/elastictabstops/#gedit
I assume it would not be trivial to integrate this into Geany?

Sounds interesting.

We use the Scintilla component for the editor widget, if this supported elastic tabstops, we could provide an option for them.
