in reply to Wider screen with nodelets off

Maybe change your CSS?
td.main_content { width: 100% }
Though more CSS classifiers would be desirable there - ideally to add something like
td.nodelets { display: none }
The following might work instead.
table[width="98%"] td[width="20%"] { display: none }

Makeshifts last the longest.

    Ahhh... great idea, I didn't think to try CSS.

    Setting the main_content width to 100% works, insomuch as it makes the right column as narrow as possible.

    I had no luck getting a hold of the other column, either through the above example, or I also tried:

    td.main_content + td { display: none; }

    Perhaps, as you suggest, a much simpler solution would simply be to add a class attribute for that column, rather than removing it completely from the html.
