Note that if there's no margin (i.e. 99% of the time) this will not align
things properly on a text terminal. This is the reason why I do
a `make-string' for the leading space: the size of the string is used
for alignment in text-terminals while the `display' prop is used otherwise.
Of course, the text-terminal display engine should ideally be improved to
understand :align-to and such things, but I won't be the one to implement it.
Also, how about adding a `text-start' special case which would stand for
(+ (scroll-bar . left) left-fringe left-margin) so that we don't have to
remember all the possible display elements and so that when we decide to
add yet another display element we won't have to update the code.
