            Bug ID: 336910

           Version: unspecified

Good day!

Thank you for Dolphin and your work and effort!
I've been using Dolphin on a daily basis for some time now and find it a good
and useful tool. 
With respect to usability I nevertheless have some suggestions that - in my
view - might make it even better:

Allow for side-panels to be also arranged side by side.
- For instance: "Places" left and immediately at its right side "Folders". This
would in some cases result in a better overview and even faster navigation.

Allow for separators (or some other kind of structure) in "Places".
- This would improve orientation.

When closing a split view, the in-active window should close, not the active. 
- It is almost always the active window that one focuses on and for which on
wants more space.

Like the search-bar the filter-bar should be placed at the top, not at the
bottom of the window.
- In general, search-/filter-bars at the bottom of a window don't seem to be
ergonomically sensible solutions.

A browsing-history in the address-bar would be helpful
- Sometimes this would be a faster way to go back to a certain address -
compared to hitting the "Back"-button many times.

In the "Details"-view I would prefer to (optionally) see the size of folders
instead of the number of elements.
- This would better help to see where cleanup is profitable.

An option to set the view-mode for all (sub-) windows simultaneously to
"Compact" etc. would be nice.

In addition to the vertical split-view a horizontal split-view should be
offered as well.


Kind regards!
