Description
Firstly, thanks for all the hard work that has gone into the log viewer, this really is a brilliant addition to an already excellent product.
This might be an issue with my setup, but it could be useful to others in a similar situation.
I run a TICK stack in kubernetes, and have services that use winstonjs to output influx-format files, which telegraf tails into influxdb, so that I can use the log viewer in chronograf. To namespace logs within the same application (being docker it's only one application per host anyway) I use an appname in the format of _. This results in quite wide data values in the Application column, and I cannot find a way to resize it.
Any suggestions, or is this something that could be added in the future?

Research direction
Start by locating the Chronograf log viewer and its Application column in the TypeScript frontend. Reproduce the reported behavior with wide application values, then determine whether the column should be resizable, autofit, or both. Done means the column can accommodate wide values without preventing use of the other log viewer columns.
