As far as I know, shack nor anyone else has started the dialog yet. Since
he hasn't been around the list to answer, I would just dive into this
yourself. To bone up on the infrastructure work done in this area, you
probably should review some of these threads:
http://www.abisource.com/mailinglists/abiword-dev/99/December/0096.html
http://www.abisource.com/mailinglists/abiword-dev/99/December/0097.html
http://www.abisource.com/mailinglists/abiword-dev/99/December/0182.html
None of this has anything to do with the dialog itself, but it will
solidify your understanding of how differently aligned tabs were implemented.
