Column border style

Hello!

Just a simple idea that might be interesting for other users. When you have many columns with different categories, there is no simple way to make a visual distinction that allows you to "group" data vertically.

So far, what I'm doing is to create a "fake" border using an empty column with background color. This has some issues, because there is a minimum width, and title is mandatory and must be unique.

The idea would be to define - at column level - some style (border thickness and color) for its left border (I think it would be enough to define just one (left or right) border)

Thank you

Jose
