FYI, I have org-columns-default-format set to: %TODO %PRIORITY %40ITEM(Task) %Effort(ETC){:} %CLOCKSUM(Taken){:} %TAGS(Tags) I noticed one tiny thing which could be improved - links are rendered as their raw text. I guess this will be slightly tricky to handle since in many cases the text of the link will end up being truncated by the %40 - but it would be VERY cool if it was handled gracefully, e.g. by truncating with ellipses.
