Comment:

 Just to confirm that yes it is the unset and redefinition to change the
 order of the columns that is causing the problem.    Actually it seems
 just the unset causes it even without redefining

 Bit slow today, but I of course realised that it is so quick to test that
 and so did.

 I am allowing people to use standard posts as events if they want.

 Also allowing support of comments etc but did not want to have too much
 displayed.
   so wanted to hide the less necessary columns and change order of others
 .

 There is another way that one could initially hide a column (and user
 could add back if they wanted using screen options) - basically set the
 user option.  Cumbersome but could work.

 But I do not know another way to change the order of the columns.   I
 think this is a valuable thing to be able to do for a user interface point
 of view.  For custom posts, different columns will be more meaningful and
 so should be more accessible.

 So it is this a feature request then - ability to change order of columns
 in edit screens? I've marked it as such for now.
