I use proportional fonts for regular text (with the mixed-pitch package).  In this situation, as far as I know the only way to make tags look at consistent is to set org-tags-column to 0 so they directly follow the text (I make the font size smaller, so there's a large heading then small tag) or to jam them way over as far right as they'll go.  Anything else and they look ragged.

So I suspect people using variable pitches will already have this turned on, and making it the default won't bother them.
