Nice! So, IIUC, you should also be able to do something like this then:

\definealign[AlignStandard][verytolerant,stretch]
\definealign[AlignR2L][AlignStandard][r2l]

Is that correct?

Re wikifying: I've tried to create the \definealign page, but unlike other command pages this page would look empty with no automatically generated content. So I guess the command is not yet in the command index, right?
