That was probably me. And it's a default -- some of the old dot-matrix
printers, at least, had the ability to "set tabstops", IIRC.

Tabstops have been setable since before typewriters used electricity.

But just as nice, I would like to have fonts that have a space (ASCII 032) that shows something visible on the screen but is invisible in a printout.

Different background color? Would probably get annoying after a while.

    It's not feature creep if you put it
    at the end and adjust the release date.
