Most of the spreadsheet application I know allow you
- to mark a column
- and to hide it (it is still there and can be displayed of course)
That question was asked for example in
https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/2blff3/is_it_possible_to_hide_some_columns_from_an_org
I now that I can hide regions in emacs but I am not sure about rectangles.

- Well part one:
Original table
| Name | Passport | other |
| | <2> | |
| Joe | 123456 | |
| John | 456789 | |
- part two: narrow the second column
| Name | =>> | other |
| | =>> | |
| Joe | =>> | |
| John | ==> | |
- part three missing: how can I recover the original table (something like
widening)?????
The only solution I came up with is rather cumbersome
(defun org-table-turn-narrowing-off ()
(interactive)
(setq org-table-do-narrow nil)
(message "Now table narrowing is off!"))
(defun org-table-turn-narrowing-on ()
(interactive)
(setq org-table-do-narrow t)
(message "Now table narrowing is on!"))
(defun org-table-toggle-narrowing ()
"Toggle function between New subject is in same thread or not."
(interactive)
(make-repeat-command 'org-table-toggle-narrowing
'(org-table-turn-narrowing-on
org-table-turn-narrowing-off)))
Turning narrowing of and run C-c C-c again.
I hope there are more comfortable solutions.
