Just in case anyone is following this, but it is starting to feel like
my own personal thread.

1. Solved.

This is done using {:} in the column specification:
#+COLUMNS: %10ITEM %5Effort{:} %5CLOCKSUM %5Remaining{:}
So now (part of) my dynamic block looks like this:
| ITEM | Effort | CLOCKSUM | Remaining |
|--------------------------------------+--------+----------+-----------|
| .1 Heading One | 4:28 | 1:46 | 2:48 |
| ... 1.1 A sub heading | | 0:42 | |
| . Inline ting | 1:00 | 0:42 | 0:24 |
| ... 1.2 Another sub heading | | 1:04 | |
| . Write this bit | 1:20 | 0:49 | 0:31 |
| . Do something | 1:23 | 0:05 | 1:18 |
| . This bit too | 0:45 | 0:10 | 0:35 |
| ... 1.3 Heading with no inline tasks | | | |
| ...... 1.3.1 a | | | |
>> 3. Refresh all the Remaining properties automatically
Any ideas? (Don't worry I'll work it out....)
