There are two features the patch provides: - All sortable columns in tabulated-list-mode derivatives that are wide enough to display a sort indicator when selected do so (sortable columns that are not wide enough include e.g. the first three in the Buffer-menu-mode table). In contrast, currently, i.e. without the patch, all final sortable columns and some non-final ones that are wide enough do not display the sort indicator when selected. - When a column (whether selected or not) is made narrower (by repeatedly typing `{') than the length of the column label in the header line, the label is truncated and displays a trailing ellipis, just like the data lines of such columns in the table (if such a narrowed column is sortable and selected, the the sort indicator is still displayed after the ellipis). In contrast, currently, the column labels are not truncated, which can lead to misalignment between the header line and the data lines. (However, even with the patch, misalignment can happen, because the data lines can be truncated to display nothing but the ellipis, while the header line labels always show at least the first letter of the label. I think the display of the data lines here is questionable, but dealing with that is another issue.) Steve Berman
