There's always a way to start. Can't do more with my limited time for now.
I know the syntax of IndexParamIsSet and IndexParamValue in TIB_StringList
but it required more testing to put other properties in the same bag.
I didn't want to pursue this because I was evaluating to allow minimum
column width specification as an option.

If you want it before the next weekend, do it yourself. :-) I won't look
into it before saturday if nobody expands it before.
