the summary says it all.  Prevents bouncing of aligmnent in columns on trees
that have flexing columns.

This affects a LOT of things badly.  Pull up a lot of RDF trees and scroll them,
and the columns will bound right and left as you go.  Sizing columns acts
weirdly (jumps to right edge), etc.  There are a number of older bugs filed on
these symptoms.

Things I know have problems:

Page Info
Bookmarks
History

probably others too

Probably the addition of a width: #px; to

What a good guess :-)

r=blake assuming that's the width we want.

I used 16px because, that's the min-width, and it seems to me that most columns
in a tree should probably either flex, or have a size specified explicitly. 
This bug isn't about any treecols actually using the default width, it's about
working within the quirks of tree layout, which mis-calculates treecol width
when nothing is explicitly set.
