I think it was a little simpler than I thought -- at least I hope that's
true, and I'm not missing something really obvious. There are two
patches attached, a simple one that handles re-justification of table
fields during field movement, and another that allows for narrowing of
columns with double-width strings. The second patch is uglier, and
doesn't work 100% well (you get misalignment if you try to narrow a
double-wide to an odd number of single-width characters), but it's
better than nothing.
Please test!
