--- Comment #2 from William Friedman <[email protected]> ---
There should be an option to freeze the width of the whole table as well (IMO,
this should be the default), which is how tables currently act when they take
up the width of the whole page. If a column is added or deleted when the total
table width is frozen, then the unfrozen columns should be redistributed within
the remaining width to accommodate the added or deleted column, either by
shrinking (if a new column is added) or increasing (if an existing column is
deleted). If the total width is variable, then adding/deleting columns can
adjust the total table width as they currently do with tables that don't take
up the whole page width.

I also agree with bug 128279 that a table should be settable to automatically
equidistribute column widths. And I would add that in addition to the option to
freeze a column's custom width, column widths should be settable to min width,
expanding and contracting according to the longest string in the column.
