Attached patch proposed fixSplinter Review
Following bug 414038 thunderbird doesn't have the ability to show folder pane columns anymore. 

Doesn't look like they're coming back (see bug 414038) so we should remove the UI for it too...

Should wait until after b1 to land, because of the string changes.

Although given the visibility of this pref and the lack of functionality, maybe it would be better to land the patch without the string changes, and then just remove the strings post b1.
Might be good yes. I won't get to land it today - so with code freeze coming up, someone should feel free to land the non-string parts for me.
I've pushed the non-string parts today: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=466519

We can push the string part when we reopen the tree for beta 2.
Is the problem that it's not (easily) possible to implement those columns with current code or that Thunderbird doesn't want those colunms any more? I'm just asking because SeaMonkey probably wants to adopt the JS-driven folder pane stuff but definitely wants to keep those columns as an option.

Bug 465564 & Bug 465568 exist for new way to display unread_count/mail_count/size.
(moving to single column style from previous multi column style)
  Bug 465564 : for unread/mail_count display
  Bug 465568 : for folder size display
String changes landed, too.
