You could get this if you create a custom template for each column.  
The template might consist of a field and a line graphic. You would  
then just resize the field and line graphic in the column behavior  
script.

Start by following the directions here: http://lessons.runrev.com/spaces/lessons/manuals/datagrid/lessons/7311-How-Do-I-Customize-A-Table-s-Columns-

After customizing one of your columns to look/act like you want using  
the above method you can just make duplicates of the column template  
group and name the duplicates after the other columns in your table.  
All of the duplicates will point to the same column behavior script so  
you just have to update your code in one place.

Let me know if you need more clarification on any of the above.
