Issue type Trivial issue (does not break functionality)
Title Catalogue tabular view should auto-size
Status Completed

Description Composr as a general rule uses 'fixed' sizing for tables, so that they can be as neat as possible. For example, for columns just containing buttons we don't want excess space to be auto-assigned there.

However, we cannot realistically do fixed sizing for catalogues as we have no idea how many content columns there will be and their relative minimum/maximum/average content lengths.

We therefore should put automatic sizing on catalogue tabular views in the default templates.
This will still in the vast majority of cases respect fixed column sizing on particular columns (view link column if present, rating column if present).

The trade-off is reduced performance rendering the table in the web browser.
