So, to clarify again, I'm not talking about that functionality.

A column edge is moved right or left, and the keyboard shortcut is right or
left.

Users don't read explanations and definitions before using the app, nor should
they. These shortcuts, for these actions, are counter-intuitive: When you press
Right, you should not see something move Left; if you press Left, nothing
should move Right. It's as simple as that.


The only question is how to fix this. We can change the semantics of the
commands, or we can change the shortcuts. Or both.
