Actually, in practice one usually wants a mix of weighted widths and

I don't recall having seen any table/column list API that does a weighted
column width layout. They require the API user to specify a width for each
column (respectively use some default) and they provide some method to
explicitly set a column to the minimum width to fit all cells in it. I
believe resizing the view usually doesn't resize any column (or only the
last). That doesn't mean that we can't implement a weighted column layout,
but I suppose there's a reason why no one else does.
