Summary:
xCode does not handle code indentation correctly with non-monospaced fonts.

Steps to Reproduce:
Change editor font to Helvetica Neue.  Attempt to take advantage of auto indentation for one-argument-per-line method calls.

Expected Results:
Whitespace/tabulation adjusted for alignment

Actual Results:
Chaos

Regression:

Notes:
I know most developers prefer monospace, but I do not, and other IDEs handle this gracefully.  I think monospaced fonts are a holdover from the dark ages.
