I don't understand how you mean with offsets or empty columns, do you
have an example? I wanted the functionality for a very narrow table in
a booklet where paper economy is a great concern. It does not matter
if it is horizontally aligned, a hole at the end (though ugly) might
still save an entire page for other useful information. Of course it
is overkill, but since every strange request on this list usually
leads to a pointer to functionality implemented several years back, I
figured it couldn't hurt to ask ...
