Description
There was a concern raised (by dbaron I think, though I'm not sure) that if we introduced a ::column pseudo-element for multicol, it would be very confusing if we also have :nth-column() which has nothing to do with multicol. We don't use abbreviations much in CSS syntax, but table markup in HTML already uses col as an abbreviation in many places (the <col> and <colgroup> elements, values of the scope attribute, the colspan attribute, etc.) so maybe using that abbreviation here would be an appropriate way out of the potential conflict.
