The last column has infinite width, so I don't see how you could make
it wider or narrower.  (I agree that we should consider signaling a
user-error in this case.)

This seems to imply that the use case in which this is somehow an
issue includes more than you've reported.  Can you add to your
description the minimal configuration that could explain why this
behavior seemed to be a problem?

Any basis for such general claim?  Which design is at fault here?
