You're right that there isn't one built into MrEd. It's on the (long)
list of things I'd like to add one day.

It's possible to implement in terms of canvases, of course. SirMail
(available via SVN) has a list with three columns for message headers.
SirMail's code might be useful to you (see sorting-list% plus
header-list%), but it's probably not good code to start a more general
widget.
