In my mind, a "column index" describes the column number in which a
given cell is located. In other words, a "column index" is one half of a
cell's coordinates. What you're describing seems more like the "first
visible column" which, as I believe you suggest in a different response,
is a property of the table.

Naming issues aside, let's say we put this property on the row or table
rather than on the cell. What then happens if we have a case where there
is a gap. Like in a spreadsheet in which certain columns are hidden?
What would the value of your property contain?
