Is there any way to make bb2 ONLY contain certain columns or do I have
to explicitly say
"--bb2-ignorecolumns=test1,test2,...,test1040,test1041" ? Sadly that
isn't hyperbole.

There's no way of doing that, sorry.

You could modify the bb2 top page generation in pagegen.c to take out
all but certain columns.  The data structures passed to it are
essentially a tree of linked lists.  You could easily manipulate it.  

As I've mentioned before in other threads, this is less than ideal a
solution as you need to maintain your own patches, and you need to know
a fair amount of C.  Still, if it really needs to get done, we did
something similar (reordering of hosts in the list so acked are on the
bottom).

Just throwing that out.
