I am not sure. It might be, that the functionality of using the tabstop
setting when shiftwidth is zero is indeed missing from vartabstop,
because this was done some time after the vartab patch has been created
and that feature has than not made it back into the vartabs patch.
I'll have a look at it in more detail later.
