It could be done (HTML is quite symmetrical left to right / right to
left). But it requires non-trivial changes in WTreeView, and unless
seconded by other developers it might not be something we implement
really soon ...

In fact, this was requested by a customer, and we would allow a
hierarchy in the horizontal header but it would not be rendered as a
tree but more as a "grouping" feature. As I don't see how you could
present this data in WAbstractItemModel (it's hiearchical so you have
to make a choice: hierachy on the rows or on the columns) -- so you
would need to configure these groups outside of the model.

This feature is likely to make it in Wt in the coming months.
