Since the units changes, it can be quite difficult to hover at just the right place to trigger a tree column splitter. Depending on your DPI you used to have about eight pixels to aim at but since the units changes you may only have one.
Attached patch Proposed patchSplinter Review
Note: By comparison with my branch build, the hit test area appears to be 4 pixels from the right and the left edge and the next 3 pixels. I've thus changed the right check to be <= to allow it to include the 4th pixel.

r=me assuming that 4px feels like approximately the right amount.
