We now have the commands `{' (`tabulated-list-narrow-current-column') and `}' (`tabulated-list-widen-current-column'). But it would be nice to also have controls to change the widths using the mouse. I guess the challenge would be to ensure that it worked smoothly, as the mentioned commands are fairly slow (average 0.4 seconds on my machine in `list-packages').
