while trying to switch from using spreadsheet to Org mode for some information management tasks, two issues came up:

1) I spend a lot of time using column view in documents that contain URLs. Is it possible to display clickable links in column view?

2) Can I define keybindings to insert and delete rows within column view? Right now, I find myself leaving and re-entering column view all the time just to add or remove rows.

I've read the full guide, but didn't find any solutions in it. A thread from 2009 indicates that (a) it's something that other people might find useful as well and (b) it wasn't easy to implement back then. (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/17021/focus=17044).

I'm hoping that things might have changed. I'd be very happy to make a donation or compensate the person directly if someone can code up a solution.

Thanks!
