To add a link column, add a property shape such as ex:MyTableColumns-link a sh:PropertyShape ; sh:path ex:link ; sh:name "link" ; sh:nodeKind sh:IRI ; sh:order "0"^^xsd:decimal ; sh:values sh:this .
to the node shape that declares the columns. The trick is to add an inferred value pointing at the focus node itself. In the absence of this, the table viewer could indeed just have a button to automatically have such a column visible, as I guess it's a common requirement. Or, as you say, we could introduce a variation of that viewer that does it automatically. Meanwhile, I guess the work-around above is probably good enough. Note that you could reuse the same property shape in all your table viewer node shapes, so overhead can be minimal.
