TabularEditor triggering column size recompute #1434

From offline discussion, the use case can be illustrated with the NumPy_array_tabular_editor_demo.py in the examples. Say the format for a number is changed such that the displayed text is shorter, one may want to be able to resize the columns so that more columns can be fit in the view. From me: This may have to be an option that one can opt-in, though, as in some context, it may be desirable to keep the column sizes static. |

One thing to keep in mind is that users can manually re-size columns, and this is tracked. We will need to decide whether the right behaviour is to override or preserve these (or maybe there needs to be an option to do both)? |

Would like to link a trait listener to the
TabularEditorthat triggers a recompute of the column widths. I triedrefreshandupdate, and both seemed not to recompute the column widths.Specifically, I want to call
