Hi, I'm a newcomer to the eclipse editor (3.0.1).

I played a bit with Java editor settings but I did not find how to set this
kind of word wrap:
1) Use TAB character to indent
2) Use spaces to align arguments

like (<--> is a tab, _ is a space)

class Test {
<-->Test(LongClassName a,
<-->_____LongClassName b) {
<--><-->a.use(b);
<-->}
}

I like this kind of word wrap because it will keep sources aligned in files
that are shared between developers that like TAB=4 spaces and who likes
TAB=8 space.

Is possible to achieve this with eclipse java editor?
