Hiding a column sets colspan of each cell in the end grouping to max columns

Test case: http://live.datatables.net/rifigame/1/edit?html,js,output

When I use both the column visibility option and row grouping in a table and I hide a column it immediately sets the colspan of each cell in the grouping line to the number of columns in the table. Is this something that happens automatically, and if so, is there a way to turn it off or adjust it? I've looked into resetting the colspans after a draw, but it doesn't seem to change anything.

You need to use column-visibility to redraw the table to have rowGroup update. I updated the example to use column().index() to get the visible index of the last column. This is used to create a colspan for the left most columns. Your code might work but this seems simpler.
