I was having second thoughts about this idea 😬. The feature is useful
but difficult to implement right.
The problem is that some columns of 'ls -l' are left aligned, so it's
impossible to know where a column starts or ends by looking at an
individual line.
I think I would rather revert the commit until someone comes up with a
better idea, if you don't mind. The ideal would be if 'ls --dired'
would report the names and positions of the columns.
