This'll be somewhat useful, but I can't think of a way it would be
implemented, can you?  Also I'd much rather have your next suggestion:

Yes! As we mentioned before, there could be a scheduling option similar
to specify recurrence of calendar items. This new scheduling system
could also be used for the oft-requested Auto-mailcheck. :)

I think another rule to add to columns (beyond what you suggest) would
be to prevent any given column from taking more than, say, 25% extra
beyond what the average column width is... i.e. if you've got two colums
(each 50%), no column could take more than 50%+(50%/4)=62%. This would
prevent the super-lopsided columns that sometimes occur.
