CSS 3, Multi-Column Layout, currently a Working Draft.  Doesn't
(currently) include a way to specify min and max column widths and let
the browser auto-size the columns, but this is where to speak up if you
want to see this in an actual standard.

Give it ten years and it might be widely enough supported that it'll be
safe to use, if new web specs ever again do make it to the mainsteam.

body { column-count: 3 }
