Seems like there ought to be facile way to take:
Fred (123) 456-7890
Alice (123) 456-7890
Mary-Anne (123) 456-7890
and realigns to:
Fred (123) 456-7890
Alice (123) 456-7890
Mary-Anne (123) 456-7890
Googling suggests libraries `align`, `tabulated-list`, and `table`, but none
of these got the job done for me. I wrote my own, but it wasn't completely
trivial (40 slocs and a lil more than an hour of fiddling).
