You are only locked into fixed widths when you use multi-column text frames. Instead, add column guides and use single-column frames. You can unlock the guides and move them at will.

Unfortunately this won't let you have variable gutter widths, however. For that you'll need to draw some ruler guides and add the frames to fit. This is one case where master frames might actually be a good idea since autoflow will create frames based on the column guides, not ruler guides, if there are no master frames to work with.
