In gtabview I reworked a bit how column widths are calculated, but sadly I didn't have time lately to do anything on tabview :/
If the width of the label is up to 2/3 of the width of the column, I widen the column so that the label is fully visible. I also had to introduce a minimal column width, since with a GUI the minimal column width could be 1 pixel.
It would be nice if you could give it a spin and see if you like how columns are sized.
I also calculate column widths by using a time limit (~250ms for all visible columns if I recall correctly). This ensures that, on large datasets, we get responsive autosizing. We should do the same in tabview.
On the other hand I never got to the point of adding "mode" sizing, which I truly love in tabview when working with mixed datasets :/
