Five years ago, I mentioned it would be very useful if Vim had
arbitrary tab stops. Preferably a list of widths, not a list of
column numbers.

Guess what : I haven't changed my mind. :-)

There is a "variable tabstops" patch by Matthew Winn; it's listed on the Vim patches page (http://groups.google.com/group/vim_dev/web/vim-patches):

10. Variable tabstops
    Author: Matthew Winn
    Status: alpha
    Site: http://groups.google.com/group/vim_dev/msg/039495cd5b0f4fd0
    For use with the patch: AutoVariableTabstop command and function
    Set different widths for each tab stop.

I haven't used it personally, but it surely sounds interesting. If some people try this out now and report back positive news, maybe Bram will still include it in 7.3 or at least consider it for the following release.
