Short description of error
Changing the Axis property of Align to Transform Orientation does nothing. It should either determine which of the target axes the object's Z is aligned with or which of the object's axes is aligned with the target's Z.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Add a Suzanne or any other model that shows what direction it's pointing
Rotate the object so it's not aligned with the world
Use Align to Transform Orientation
Set the Orientation to Global (or anything else it's not aligned with) in the redo panel
Change the Axis to X or Y in the redo panel

Just tested, it seems changing axis do nothing, only align by Z for any orientation.
Also changing Values do nothing, always resets to 0.

From first glance, it looks like Orientation Axis is not used here. (@mano-wii : correct me if I am wrong).
If it is indeed unused, maybe we can hide it from the Adjust Last Operation panel?

Align does not have its own operator. It is a "submode" of the generic transform operator.
In the transform operator, the Orientation Axis is purposely kept visible as it is commonly used in other modes.
Maybe we could use the poll_property callback to display properties depending on the mode.
But this needs to be studied.
