Comment (by chozabu):

 Hmm, on my wide table I did not have filters enabled yet - Just tried
 turning them on, and yes that is indeed a problem!
 Though, rather than setting the table to have an overflow which is very
 hard to scroll left and right, I'd rather make the filters box a
 dropdown...
 Having said that - I'd also be happy if my browser kept the tables
 scrollbar onscreen when overflow is active!

 Though, rather than shortening my column headers - I'm still rather happy
 with letting them wrap so
 //Barack
 Obama//
 is still shorter than
 //B. Obama//

 remains more informative, and requires less effort on my part - happy for
 the header to take an extra line or two, each page of the table is
 ~100-200 lines anyhow.

 Still - even with this in place, I have a table or two that are too wide -
 and I'd really like to have the option of wider tables too!

 timgraham, I must disagree - current situation is quite bad - a wide table
 with a full page of data is nearly unusable! Though, I do appreciate this
 ticket being renamed to a positive action, rather than negative
 identification :)

 I'll post  here if I come up with another good general purpose solution to
 solve the problem, rather than reduce it.
