...or, perhaps, the indentation should regard only the cursor, not the 
character! For example, editing bash script, the following happens (with 
the cursor, X, at the end of last line):

## [...]
## [...]
##    foo text...X  <== last line

Typing C-M-j produces

## [...]
## [...]
##    foo text...
##    X

with the cursor (X) under the 'f' of 'foo': the character '##' is 
vertically aligned.

Ciao,
Angelo.
