The column adjustment method is pretty much standard in all
applications.  I've seen numerous applications opened for the very first
time where column widths weren't "optimal".  It doesn't matter if they
are Qt, gtk, Java, MS Windows.  It doesn't bother me, since I adjust
them to my liking.  However, once adjusted, they should not change.  
I've not encountered any problems in this area.

I don't have any particular sight problems....other than missing the
obvious from time to time.
