I mentioned the alignment problem with just one sentence in my original post, and just clarified what I meant when Christian asked me. But I actually think it's an important issue, take a look at these two gists:
https://gist.github.com/JustSid/211378039a4d53a83848
https://gist.github.com/JustSid/14004276a0a6b27d342e

They both align correctly in my IDE and with my settings, but the second version with tabs breaks everywhere where users use different settings.

I just assumed that, if there are tabs in the comments, he also used tabs in the actual source (maybe I shouldn't jump to conclusions, but that would make flame wars much harder)
