When editing a table in orgmode, the columns become no longer aligned.
How to let emacs align all columns automatically on-the-fly within
orgmode?

Normally, pressing TAB in any cell will align the whole table and move  the
cursor to the next cell.

I use Chinese characters in some column, and it seems that pressing
TAB can't do the trick for this senario.

In my experience valign was a disaster in that it made org-mode pretty
much unusable. For details see
