        That depends what you mean by "align". I agree that for the
following, elastic tab stops would be best:

int      a;
SomeType b;

        However, for this, I think that spaces are better:

doSomething (someLongParameterThatJustifiesBreakingTheLine,
             someOtherLongParameterJustInCase);
