Add command to "Remove column and others" #418

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
When I split a column into multiple columns using "Split into several columns" 
and leave it unlimited (because I need to) there are sometimes more columns 
than I really want or need to deal with.  To help cleanup leftover columns more 
easily, it would be useful to select a column and choose to "Remove it and 
others to it's right", instead of clicking "Remove column" many, many times on 
all the columns I did not need.  I do not see a need for "Remove column and 
others to left" however, but maybe others need it.

The re-order column command under the All menu allows you to do this. I'm going 
to mark this as WontFix and change "Reorder Columns" to "Re-order / Remove 
Columns".
