I have a minor suggestion for the visual appearance of the tablelist:
The show separators option is nice. However, I think it would look
nicer if the last column did not display the separator. Otherwise, when
you have a long table but only a few actual data rows in it, the last
column creates a "break" on the right edge of the table on the last row.
So I suggest creating those separators only between two columns.

right of the last column. This will happen if some of the columns are
stretchable, but I don't think this is the typical use case.
In addition, the separators are at the same time column delimiters. This
applies to the last column, too.
Lastly, it is also a matter of taste whether it is better to not have
that "break" than to have a delimiter between the last column and the
unused area to its right.

It is no big deal - it just improves its look. Please look at this

The break I was talking about is visible on the last data row. When you
go from the last row to the empty space, the thick line on the right
(which is the column separator) causes a slight distortion.
