Hello,
I'm using font lock to have tags right aligned with the following
code:
;; Right alignment (char wise)
(add-to-list 'font-lock-extra-managed-props 'display)
(font-lock-add-keywords 'org-mode
`(("^\\*+.*?\\( \\)\\(:[[:alnum:]_@#%:]+:\\)$"
(1 `(face nil
display (space :align-to (- right 3
,(org-string-width
(match-string 2)))))
prepend))) t)
;; Right alignment (pixel wise)
;;(font-lock-add-keywords 'org-mode
;; `(("^\\*+.*?\\( \\)\\(:[[:alnum:]_@#%:]+:\\)$"
;; (1 `(face nil
;; display (space :align-to (- right 3
;; (,(org-string-width
(match-string 2)
t)))))
;; prepend))) t)
I've not tested it thoroughly but it seems to be working
reasonably well on my machine. It is pretty similar to the code
posted by Ihor Radchenko (thread on "variable-pitch-mode misaligns
org-mode heading tags") and I wonder if there are any drawback
with such techniques (too slow? does not work on all situations?)

The above code has problems when you try editing the heading near the
end of the title (before the :align-to space). Especially when the
window is narrow. Also, when `org-auto-align-tags' is nil.
Not that they cannot be solved, but it is not just as trivial as the
above code.

Thanks, I noticed the problem and alleviated it by having two
spaces at end of the title (and set org-tags-column to nil) but I
see why it's not really usable
