Your suggestion looks quite useful to me.

One possibility is to write your own dynamic block writer function.
Find documentation at (info "(org) Dynamic Blocks") .

Concretely check out this proposition (tested with your example). Have
(defun org-dblock-write:columnview2 (params)
"Write the column view table.
Like org-dblock-write:columnview but write a line with shrink widths taken from the
column view format.
PARAMS is the same as in `org-dblock-write:columnview'."
(insert (format "|%s|\n"
(mapconcat
(lambda (x) (concat "<" (number-to-string x) ">"))
(mapcar (lambda (x) (nth 2 x)) (org-columns-compile-format
(plist-get params :format)))
"|")))
(org-dblock-write:columnview params))
defined. E.g. type C-x C-e after the last paren.
Then use "columnview2" instead of "columnview" and get
#+BEGIN: columnview2 :hlines 2 :skip-empty-rows t :indent nil :format "%5ITEM(Problem) %5Is(Issue) %12TODO %12Date %7Status(Status){X/}"
| <5> | <5> | <12> | <12> | <7> |
| Problem | Issue | TODO | Date | Status |
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+------+------------------+--------|
| Issues | | | | [0/1] |
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+------+------------------+--------|
| Why is \eqref{eq:section4-sh15}: not used in the proof of proposition 5 (section 4) | 9 | TODO | <2021-09-25 sáb> | [ ] |
