Also, I think it'd be _very_ useful in a busy newspaper DTP department
where all text frame use that particular style X, and you need to have
something at the end of the paragraph (like a "more on page XY" at the
end of teaser text on front page) that flushes right. Not an
unthinkable scenario, and having to adjust the right tab to the right
edge of the text frame can be such a huge waste of time (not to speak
of stress factor).

If implementing a special character is a problem, there could be an
easier solution. A button on the tab editor (is there a stand-alone
tab editor?) that shoots the tab to the right edge of the text-frame
(or page, or margin, or whatever). In fact, it would be useful to have
the same kind of functionality for left and center as well.
