Idea: option to filter displayed text by column

[christianhassler]

I think it would be nice if fzy had a simple way to "hide" delimited columns from the interactive display while still allowing them to be piped to stdout.

Imagine I have something like a csv file. Column 1 contains a "friendly" name and the remaining columns contain arbitrary machine-readable data. I would like to select a row by its friendly name using fzy, but then pipe the entire row to something else for further processing.

It wouldn't have to be any fancier than what cut does (-d to choose a delimiter and -f to select columns to display). Perhaps there could also be an option to choose whether or not the filtered text factors into the scoring, if such a thing would be easy to implement.

More specifically: applying regexp to a display list, but not to the strings themselves.
