Not sure I understand what you mean... we don't cap when importing, nor when
setting optimal width. Otherwise I would be seeing the huge widths for columns
with a lot of text.

I feel it is better to separate the two functions - allow the user to take
simpler individual actions: "Optimize width", "Cap width", rather than only a
more complex "optimize-under-cap".

Also, in my use case, there are many columns for which I don't want the optimal
width because I don't care about them much: Columns which are mostly empty but
occasionally have some text which I could examine individually. Or columns
under the cap, but for which the first centimeter or so is enough. So I may not
want to increase the width of those just to cap the width of others.
