Ah, yes. I should have restated what I had originally suggested fully. As 
before, I need to not post while tired, yet here I am again.

The way I see it, the list is divided into three categories of view types: 
Icon Views, List Views, and Special Views. Toggling would switch between the 
most recently used icon and list views. So, by default, this would toggle 
between Icon View and Details View. However, if someone usually used another 
view in one of those sections, it would adapt to that a bit.

I think the main usage of toggling views is to switch between the Icon-Type 
views and the List-Type views (If you disagree, please do tell. I haven't 
had a chance to do any study, this is just based on general recollections of 
watching people use computers and some logical thought).
