I think it will be difficult. I also think your solution will be
memory-intensive for large numbers of columns.

The "right" answer is for this to be implemented at a lower level,
perhaps using the code from GridView as a basis. What you really want
is a GridView that supports horizontal scrolling (up to a stated
number of columns) and pinning of certain rows/columns. Done properly,
the memory consumption would be limited to the visible cells -- your
HorizontalScrollView-of-ListViews will require memory proportional to
the total number of columns, not just the visible columns.

However, to paraphrase Thomas Hobbes, any solution for this will be
nasty, brutish, and long. GridView is ~2,000 lines of code, and you
want a superset of GridView capabilities.
