Bug Description
This is a regression from 3.8 present until 3.12 (it is fixed on 3.14+).
Two issues regarding tree view columns:
1. When columns in a tree view are set to be resizeable and the horizontal scrollbar is shown, they cannot be resized.
2. When columns are of fixed width, the horizontal scrollbar is not visible when it should be.
The proposed fix is to backport a couple of reverts from gtk+ 3.14.
[Test Case]
For 1) Open nautilus and change it to list mode (Ctrl+1). Resize the window so that the horizontal scroll bar appears. The name column is not resizeable but should be with this fix applied.
For 2) Open gtk3-demo (from gtk-3-examples) and run the "Tree Store" demo (under "Tree View"). Resize the window so that content on the right gets hidden. No horizontal scrollbar becomes visible unless this fix is applied.
[Regression Potential]
Any application using gtk's tree view with visible columns is potentially affected. However, resizing columns is not a common operation and horizontal scrollbars should rarely be visible.
