To help debugging the original problem: the 'display' property that
was always present caused move-to-column in tabulated-list-print to
stop at the wrong position, where the tabulated-list-column-name
property had the wrong value.  So either the 'display' property should
be used only when actually needed, or the tabulated-list-column-name
property should be also put on the text covered by the 'display'
property.
