User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:71.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/71.0

Steps to reproduce:

launch reader view in a website with lots of text.

Actual results:

reader view displays text in a single, vertically scrolling column. this is a sub-optimal usage of widescreen space.

Expected results:

it would be nice to have a native mode for scrolling horizontally through content distributed across screen-height columns. a simple checkbox on the reader view settings would suffice; the current setting for text width would then work as column width.
