Oops, forgot to include verbatim markers.

For the following table

```
| Header 1                                         |
| <10>                                             |
| This column should be truncated to 10 characters |
```
When I align it in org 9.1.9, the column display is truncated as 
expected:

```
| Header 1   |
| <10>       |
| This col=> |
```

But when I align it in 9.2.1, the column width is not affected, and I 
get

```
| Header 1                                         |
| <10>                                             |
| This column should be truncated to 10 characters |
```

Thanks,

Galen
