(In reply to fred from comment #23) > Avoiding advocacy, I just want to point out that my original bug report was almost the opposite of what Allesandro is concerned with. My report is that the *minimum* width of a column was changed to be the width of its name, or at least a few characters of it (e.g., "Prior...") rather than allowing the name to be cut short in order to make the column take up less space. Some columns have only a single glyph or a value (like Priority) where only one or two characters need be seen, and the meaning is obvious. If the minimum column width were reduced to 1 character width, then it would save space. Honestly, this doesn't seem to need terribly complex logic. But I'm not a coder. What's your original bug report? I can't find it
