Summary

I filter out most states when I'm in board view which usually leaves 3 or 4 columns being displayed. With only a few columns on the screen, they hug the left side of the board section leaving tons of empty space to the right. It would be great for these columns to have a tiny button that widens the column to take up the empty space.
