Is everything in the column picker retrieved, even if it's not currently displayed? If so, the long term solution may be to only request from the server what will actually be shown (or the smallest superset necessary) and only retrieve things like call numbers when they're requested. Adding a column with this arrangement would leave some columns blank, but to see those the items could just be scanned again. That way those that need to save network calls can not show it, and those that prefer to display it can take the hit, without having to bother with another setting.
Also, I'd vote for it to go back in.
