I think standard filling isn't so bad. It does the job mostly
satisfactorily, at least for me.

Hmm, that looks a bit ad-hoc, but would work for most practical cases.
Do you plan to have similar conditional for envs with alignment such as
"array" and "eqnarray" as well? If so, it would be consistent and make
sense.
