Is there a way to, under host control, suppress column separators for
attributes Hex 30 through Hex 36?

No. The column seperators are simply a hex sequence that is sent by the host. The same hex sequence for column seperators is also sent for the colour yellow and pink. A strict interpretation of the protocol is that hex seperators should appear whenever the hex sequence is received, but most emulators realize that the seperators are really wanted these days and offer a way to suppress them. So the only way to prevent the host from sending column seperators is avoid them in the screen files - don't code them or use yellow or pink.

(And is it just me, or does it seem like the emulators with the most
obnoxious column seps are the ones that don't provide a way for even the
user to disable them?)

Which ones don't allow it?

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
