"The Forums" is a big place - for anyone interested in the discussion I 
believe Mike's referring to this thread:
<http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=26635>

The work noted there is for a specific enhancement request to support 
the convenience of allowing insertion/deletion of columns when using the 
list type of rows without replacing the data as a whole:
<http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=16748>

Given that most of us use tabbed fields for list views now that the 
native field object has tabAlign, I'm not sure how many will be able to 
take advantage of this enhancement.

Still, good to see it in progress, but not quite the same as the 
longer-term goal of rewriting the DG as a set of LCB Widgets.
