org-indent-mode sans-serif font support

org-indent-mode doesn't work well except on monospaced font.
Is there a way around this?

I want to use Arial font. (sans-serif font)
But with org-indent-mode, the body and entry indents are misaligned,
This is very apparent at higher indent levels.

I don't think any form of indentation in Emacs with a non-monospaced
font is going to work properly.

There are several nice sans-serif monospaced fonts, such as Lucida Sans
Typwriter, DejaVu Sans Mono, or Liberation Mono.  In my .emacs I have
the following

,---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| (set-face-attribute 'default nil :font "Liberation Mono-12" :weight 'bold)
`---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cheers,

Just so you know, and because you are talking about fonts, Gmail with
large fonts displays your email in a completely unreadable way where
the lines overlap.

It is only legible at all when replying.

Oh ok, I'll make it a point to convert it to plain text before sending here.
