Please see B91740 for the original issue related to this suggestion.
The current implementation is not immeditely intuitive. Dragging a column outside of the control should have a consistent behaviour regardless if the position is below the control or elsewhere.
Proposed Solution:
if the column is dragged outside the control always display an 'X' (or not), ignoring position of column.
