Thanks for the heads-up. I'll look forward to that. Meanwhile, the only 
solution I've found is to manually fix the column size and manually 
update it every time the window is resized. Ugly, but it mostly works.

Does that only work with recend CVS code (ie: in conjunction with the 
new expand property)? I didn't have any luck with it in 2.2 -- there 
doesn't seem to be any way to specify an inital default column size 
without setting it to a fixed size...
