Your example works as expected for me in Emacs master > compiled an hour ago. That's really surprising, as five different compilations (two under NixOS, both packaged upstream, and three under Debian sid (emacs-28 from Debian's repo, 29 and 30 compiled by me)) that give the same result is... puzzling! But your positive check suggest that the problem is on my side, in some way: I will try to update my Emacses and report back. > In which kind of buffer did you try that? I tried several major modes, but that did not alter the result: this originated in a sql-mode buffer (I needed to align the VALUES of a multi-row INSERT), then I tried in a text-mode, and used the latter to test the much simpler snippet I used in my original mail. Right now I tried also in fundamental-mode, and the text does not align.
