    Columns to include in the rendered table.

    If omitted, the attributes on the configured `recordType` or the first item

    in the `data` collection will be used as a source.

    This attribute takes an array of strings or objects (mixing the two is

    fine).  Each string or object is considered a column to be rendered.

    Strings are converted to objects, so `columns: ['first', 'last']` becomes

    `columns: [{ key: 'first' }, { key: 'last' }]`.

    DataTable.Core only concerns itself with a few properties of columns.

    These properties are:

    * `key` - Used to identify the record field/attribute containing content for

      this column.  Also used to create a default Model if no `recordType` or

      `data` are provided during construction.  If `name` is not specified, this

      is assigned to the `_id` property (with added incrementer if the key is

      used by multiple columns).

    * `children` - Traversed to initialize nested column objects

    * `name` - Used in place of, or in addition to, the `key`.  Useful for

      columns that aren't bound to a field/attribute in the record data.  This

      is assigned to the `_id` property.

    * `id` - For backward compatibility.  Implementers can specify the id of

      the header cell.  This should be avoided, if possible, to avoid the

      potential for creating DOM elements with duplicate IDs.

    * `field` - For backward compatibility.  Implementers should use `name`.

    * `_id` - Assigned unique-within-this-instance id for a column.  By order

      of preference, assumes the value of `name`, `key`, `id`, or `_yuid`.

      This is used by the rendering views as well as feature module

      as a means to identify a specific column without ambiguity (such as

      multiple columns using the same `key`.

    * `_yuid` - Guid stamp assigned to the column object.

    * `_parent` - Assigned to all child columns, referencing their parent

      column.

    Model subclass to use as the `model` for the ModelList stored in the `data`

    attribute.

    If not provided, it will try really hard to figure out what to use.  The

    following attempts will be made to set a default value:

    1. If the `data` attribute is set with a ModelList instance and its `model`

       property is set, that will be used.

    2. If the `data` attribute is set with a ModelList instance, and its

       `model` property is unset, but it is populated, the `ATTRS` of the

       `constructor of the first item will be used.

    3. If the `data` attribute is set with a non-empty array, a Model subclass

       will be generated using the keys of the first item as its `ATTRS` (see

       the `_createRecordClass` method).

    4. If the `columns` attribute is set, a Model subclass will be generated

       using the columns defined with a `key`. This is least desirable because

       columns can be duplicated or nested in a way that's not parsable.

    5. If neither `data` nor `columns` is set or populated, a change event

       subscriber will listen for the first to be changed and try all over

       again.

_This is a documentation entry only_

Columns are described by object literals with a set of properties.

There is not an actual `DataTable.Column` class.

However, for the purpose of documenting it, this pseudo-class is declared here.

DataTables accept an array of column definitions in their [columns](DataTable.html#attr_columns)

attribute.  Each entry in this array is a column definition which may contain

any combination of the properties listed below.

There are no mandatory properties though a column will usually have a

[key](#property_key) property to reference the data it is supposed to show.

The [columns](DataTable.html#attr_columns) attribute can accept a plain string

in lieu of an object literal, which is the equivalent of an object with the

[key](#property_key) property set to that string.
