Kupu Error when changing Number of Table-Columns

Bug Description

I have a table with the following relative dimensions 1,1,4.
Let's now assume I'd like to remove the middle column - and I do that with
either the small handles or the "remove column" button.

The dimensions still remain set to 1,1,4 - even after saving the document.

When I change the dimension settings to 1,4 (which would be correct) Kupu
complains that the given dimensions don't match the number of columns. Strange...

After publishing and re-editing Kupu has removed the middle '1' and now the
(correct) dimensions of 1,4 are shown. But I find this a little bit confusing :-)

It also doesn't work in the other direction: If I add a column to a table I
can't add demension information for the new column.

As our editors often face this problem and it's an important feature, I would be
grateful if you could take a look at this!

Fixed this bug in silva (1.6) trunk.
Unfortunately we can't really change things in kupu for silva1.5

There's a workaround for 1.5 users, just click on the table, and the "column
width" field will be updated.

It only updates when using the buttons add and remove columns rows.
When using the remove function in kupu it doesn't update.

To be clear, the workaround for 1.5 users is to make use of the Kupu buttons
(add row, remove; add column, remove). Then click in the table and the widths
will update. Using the Firefox table controls to add/delete doesn't work. This
functionality will return in 1.6.
