I don't know how `proced' and `ibuffer' specifically handles views, but
I don't think it is a good idea to put the burden on external packages
when tabulated-list is right there.  Especially since this leads to a
lot of (what I imagine to be) duplicated code across packages.

I don't exactly understand what you mean by "interface".  Are you
referring to the package which should be responsible for managing
which columns are visible?
