Description

Currently, the data grid control only supports numeric sizes. Some explorers, such as blob or queue, have "primary" columns ("Name" for blobs, "Message Text" for queues) and where the length can vary greatly.

We should add support for columns that can grow to fill any available space.

Research direction

Start by locating the data grid control and the column definitions used by the blob and queue explorers. Trace how numeric column sizes are handled, then verify that the primary columns can expand into available space while other columns retain their behavior.
