27420 - Component field should have COLSPAN in long_list.cgi

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: User Interface, enhancement, P4)

Description

[randall.whitman]

We find that the Component field of the long_list table output very
frequently wraps onto more than one line, when it appears that there
is plenty of room to fit it on one line.  In my understanding,
Target Milestone is a short field (not longer than Component),
so it should work to give COLSPAN=2 to the table cells for both
Component and Target Milestone.

I can't believe a patch like this has been sitting for so long.  This is
reasonable, yes we want it.
