Well, I didn't read the last mails very exactly, was there some "rough consensus" ? Well, I just sent David my current version of configurable listview. All items are in a submenu, the settings are shared for all protocols and listviews. I'm a small-screen-user (14" with large virtual screen). kfm was always to big, especially compared to mc to use there. With the configurable listview I would select the columns I want to see if I browse locally, as a compromise of enough information and not taking to much space. Actually I would like to see the same information for every protocol I browse. For me it would be more convinient if the columns wouldn't change while browsing, so that the space the listview takes on the screen stays the same. Why not displaying a small icon (a cross or something) meaning "not supported" in the column which is not supported ? Since detailedlistview and treeview have automatically resizing columnwidth the columns will become small and konqy will tell you directly "this is not supported by this protocol" -> no guessing why the column is empty or hidden or why the menu item is disabled.
