Since support for Manage Columns is built into the <table> web component in IBM Carbon, this functionality is currently only available in mobile and role-based applications.
However, the <table> component includes a property called can-reorder-columns (enabled by default) that can be used to control whether the Manage Columns feature is available to users. This property could potentially be tied to a dedicated signature option configured for a specific application, such as WOSUMMARY.
Therefore, there is no out-of-the-box security group configuration available for controlling this functionality. To implement such control, you would need to modify the <table> configuration in the target application and, preferably, create a dedicated signature option for this purpose.
That said, these new capabilities are very interesting and provide significant value beyond role-based applications. The ability for users to configure their own views, not only through saved queries and data selection, but also by choosing which columns are displayed in list views is a highly requested feature.
In the past, I have addressed this requirement by creating separate role-based applications that provide dynamic list views for standard applications. For example, users could select a specific location and then be redirected to the corresponding standard Location application, allowing for a more tailored user experience.
Good luck!
