1. Add a **horizontal scrollbar at the top of the table**. There are some solutions here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3934271/horizontal-scrollbar-on-top-and-bottom-of-table
2. Use a **fixed table header**. It would be useful when you're lost in the middle of a very big table. Pure CSS solutions seem to exist: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21168521/table-fixed-header-and-scrollable-body
3. Maybe a possibility to resize columns. Not sure about that because it would more work not to lose it after each reload.
4. A way to keep **favorite views for each user**. The process would be: I select the column I want or not (with existing ""settings"" icon of each column); then I select a ""favoritize view"" option somewhere; then I can recall all my favorite views from a menu. These data could be hosted on the browser.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",507454958,Handle really wide tables better,
