[Not wasting any of my golden keystrokes, I am including this longer
previously typed example of why this bugged me.  New thought: perhaps
there should be a variable that upon start-up will determine if the
user should use the old-bad-way (global) vs. what I hope will be the
new default (buffer-local).  [---though I bet many users aren't too
aware of goal-column, anyway.]]

Well, one buffer might be a table where I might like hanging around
column 31, and another might be e-mail where I don't like the
wierdness of my cursor all the sudden due to the setting in the table
buffer.  And one buffer might another table where I need to be glued
to the beginning of line, not column 31.  You got to admit it's a
natural candidate for being buffer local, like fill-column and
fill-prefix already are.  (version=18.55).
