Looks very useful.

The only Wish List item I can think of is --number-table-columns
option that would print something like

$ echo a b c | column -t  --number-table-columns-header-and-tail
1 2 3
a b c
1 2 3

In itself that is totally pointless rubbish line, but quite often I'm
looking some tabular data and I know field number 'eh large' is the
field I am interested - but afaik there is no tool that will tell me
these numbers easily. Perhaps some awk END for i {1 ... NF} could do
the same if adding this wish crosses a overkill line.
