In that case it is a general problem of font mismatch. Emacs is still
heavily geared to mono- (or duo-) width fonts, even though I can display
proportional faces.
AFAICT it always guesses distances as a fixed number of character cells
and compensates as best it can after trying to display a string.
I'd love to see support for true proportional editing; it would make
modes like cc much easier on the eyes. But simultaneously maintaining
nice alignment for both charcell terminals and arbitrary sets of
proportional fonts is a hard problem.
