For the list of columns they would like to see a normal select box with in the first item "Select a column" or something, but you mentioned there were some issues with this kind of solution? The only issue was the formatting. The column names in some cases get incredibly long making for a very difficult interface and poor layout. This in combination with the need to specify attribute type meant that a custom pick box needed to be developed. I guess the issue here is that users don't readily understand that it is a button to be pressed in order to change the selected column, correct? I can look at re-doing the interface as time permits. Please file this as an enhancement.
