Subject: bug#43272: 27.1; variable-pitch-mode misaligns org-mode heading tags
Date: Tue, 08 Sep 2020 13:13:04 +0300

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

1. Run 'emacs -Q'
2. Open a new Org file 'C-x C-f /tmp/test.org'
3. Insert the following contents:

* TODO this is a test                                                   :tag:
* TODO here is another test                                             :tag:

The tags should align to the right with the standard monospaced font.

4. Run 'M-x variable-pitch-mode'.
5. The tags are now misaligned.

Please see attached screenshots for the before and after states of the
'variable-pitch-mode' activation.

Running 'M-x describe-char' in the space between the heading's title and
the tag informs us that the space's face is the same as the heading's
(e.g. 'org-level-1').

I am also relaying the technical insight of Adam Spiers.  Please see
