Sorry, my phrasing was sloppy. Most popular IDEs and editors do not have a plug-in or setting that implements elastic tabstops correctly. In particular, there's no implementation for vim, emacs, VSCode, eclipse, or any JetBrains IDEs. (I had forgotten that there's one for Visual Studio and one for Notepad++.)
