I changed the severity of this bug from 'whishlist' to 'normal', because of the above-quoted issue, which is related but different from the original one. Context information: I hit this bug frequently, whenever I have to edit source code in a language (Informix 4GL) for which I've not found an Emacs mode. So, I simply edit those files in plain text mode, and obviously in that scenario is very important that the current column be preserved whenever possible, because that column marks the current level of indentation. -- Dani Moncayo
