So, it's kind of a "special TAB".

Wouldn't a more flexible solution be to be able to set a TABs distance
from the RIGHT margin and not the left?
For example by using negative values?

So, a TAB at "5 cm" is 5 cm from the left margin, and a TAB at "-5 cm"
is 5 cm from the right margin?

In this case you could then set the right-aligned TAB at "-0".
