 Currently, the only way to hide columns by default is to write everyone's
 user_meta with the array for the hidden columns on a particular screen.
 However, that isn't the case with metaboxes since WordPress 3.1.

 Instead of cluttering up the database, add a default hook for columns the
 same way as it's done for meta_boxes.

 I'm including a patch to wp-admin/incluides/screen.php with the relevant
 code to make things easy. ;-)
