Yes, this gets me considerably closer. I substituted an Alignment for  
the HBox, and got the TreeView to collapse to the left just the way I  
want as columns were hidden. Thank you.

Now there is a remaining packing issue, where I need to get the  
shrinking Alignment to affect all the parent containers up the path  
to the toplevel and get them to shrink, too. If someone can suggest a  
general technique for this, I'd appreciate it. But it seems like I'm  
most of the way home. Thank you very much.
