"Align CSV Columns" shifts number with 4 spaces to the right #151

After using Align CSV Columns numbers are shifted to the right with 4 spaces, affecting when it is called in code.

Could you please clarify what do you mean by "affecting when it is called in code"? I also need an example of the current and expected behavior. There is a special rule for numbers alignment (see #106), unlike non-number fields they are aligned to the right so that it is easier to compare the values.

It can easily be fixed by using strip(), but i think the extension should be able to take care of it, it cost me several minutes of debugging

I guess I can add a config option that would tell if the numbers should be aligned to the right (default) or to the left like all other non-number fields.
