[O] tables column width question

[Jude DaShiell]

Is it possible in table mode to have a table expand as well as contract?  
If you make a header which has a minimal amount of spaces in it say:
| date | time | syst | dias | pulse |
+-

Then put an entry like:
| <2011-07-09 Sat>\t08:06AM\t139\t89\t81

in that table then save that table, will the header be adjusted to fit the 
entry below it?
