When you right click a column and then from one of the menu items add a column, I think the new column should by default be added at the column you right-clicked. Probably most useful is to add to the immediate right not the left since it would be more unusual to need to add a 1st column than a last one.
To cover differing user preferences, it may be useful to have a user option to give the exact Add Column from right-click positioning strategy - e.g. add left of, add right of, add intelligently (per last positioning or any other considerations), add at end...

Add Column positioning strategy
Re: Add Column positioning strategy
Everything will restore the last column position when adding a new column.
This currently works fine for one column.
However, adding two or more columns is currently broken.
I have on my TODO list to rewrite handling of columns, keeping the order for all columns, including columns that are not shown.
I will consider an option to add the column immediately after (or before) the column that was right clicked.
Thank you for the suggestion.
