I agree.  I was thinking of this earlier in the day.  It would be like putting 
Folder: in front of each of our folders in the folder list.  However, I can 
understand the desire to be able to have the automatic changing of the field 
name in the column.

What about putting the primary size as the column header, and then the 
oddballs get their text string appended?  One method would be do say "KB" at 
the top, and then in the size list, add B and MB as needed.  That would 
preclude having .754 KB for the 754 byte messages and .053 MB for the 53 KB 
messages.
