I haven't played with column view much yet but this is a great application I can use immediately. Since you're posting estimated times on your tasks I'm wondering if there's a way to get the clocked summary times for each task in the column view table as well (same values as C-c C-x C-d display). I'd _love_ to see my estimate task times and actual times side by side in the column view per task. That will help me tune my estimates much faster. This would be very useful for me to check how my estimates are doing compared to actual time spent on tasks. Is there some magical incantation to do this? :) Thanks, Bernt
