Nice to know that someone is using the narrow columns.

Yes, this is not yet correct, in particular on XEmacs.  I think this 
does work on Emacs, because Emacs carries the invisibility properties 
correctly along and even respects them when printing.  OK, it is on my 
list of things to fix.

either globally in .emacs

     (setq org-startup-align-all-tables t)

or in the file itself

    #+STARTUP: align

This is also covered in the manual, at the end of section 3.2.  In 
large org-files with many tables, this may cause a noticeable delay 
when visiting an org-file because all tables are re-aligned.  I guess I 
could limit this to only tables with a <N> cookie, then it could be a 
bit faster.
