Allow user to set column widths en masse. Ideally for each variable. For instance, I have sales and market share for each of ten years.

Numeric adjustment of columns in tables. As of now you can only adjust column width by using the mouse to slide the columns adjusters. It would be nice to have a way to enter exact column width.
