In fact, the function doing the compaction is already called, only it does not do anything because it is trying to match a headline. This can be easily fixed....... DONE. This should now also work in agenda buffers, using the latest GIT version. There is a new variable `org-agenda-columns-remove-prefix-from-item' which can be used to decide it the prefex should be removed. The default it to remove it in column view, on order to optimize the use of the window width.

The = problem with ITEM is that it includes any leaders, plus the = TODO
keyword and priority, which leads to duplication if any of these = are
displayed in separate columns, e.g.:

TODO =    | PRI | Task
[snip]
NEXT    | A =   |   personal:In   1d:  NEXT [#A] = book MOT  | ....
WAITING | B   | =   personal:Sched.109x:  WAITING [#B] boo | ....

Of = course it is very wasteful of window width to have this
duplication, = so I would like to at least be able to exclude the TODO
keyword and = priority from the ITEM column, and preferably the leaders
too = (although I would like to keep them for normal non-column = agenda
view).  Asking too much as usual? = ;-)

Thanks!
