never saw a reply to this.  what do you guys think of something like

  sub set_column_alignment {
      my ($self, $index, $alignment) = @_;
      my $column = $self->get_column ($index);
      croak "invalid column index $index" unless defined $column;
      my ($cell) = $column->get_cell_renderers;
      $cell->set (xalign => $alignment);
  }
  sub get_column_alignment {
      my ($self, $index) = @_;
      my $column = $self->get_column ($index);
      croak "invalid column index $index" unless defined $column;
      my ($cell) = $column->get_cell_renderers;
      return $cell->get ('xalign');
  }
