I have now re-implemented number alignment. It is automatically triggered on newline and on tab. I also implemented beancount-align-transaction that you can bind to C-C C-q to obtain the ledger-mode functionality. By default numbers are aligned to the 52nd column, controlled by the beancount-posting-amount-alignment-column defcustom variable. If that variable is set to nil the column is computed in a similar way asin beancount-align-numbers. This is probably quite slow for huge ledger files, and I personally prefer to have the alignment independent of the length of the account names. Please test and let me know.
