Indeed, there's a missing functionality in the UI to do that.
It would make a lot of sense to have a command to change the (set
of) separators (which could even try and guess based on the buffer's
contents).

I basically only ever use `tsv-mode`, which is why I haven't improved
that part of the code.  Patches welcome.
