True, but we should probably minimize some metric of annoyance, or the mean amount of customization/modification work people do relative to the default. Naturally we don't actually measure this, but certainly a discussion can be had regarding how the default width is chosen. And speaking of that... how _did_ we choose the hard-coded value we have now? > And this request is possibly the only one in our 150000+ bug tracker. But this may well be because people do not consider the possibility of making this request, as it's a subtle comparative-usability issue. (In reply to Mike Kaganski from comment #3) > we might want to change the hardcoded constants into configurable settings Perhaps, but even when that happens - there's the matter of choosing the default. So I don't believe this bug should wait until the setting is un-hard-coded. I'm not sure I have a strong personal opinion about what the default width should be. Right now, I can fit the number "12345678901" into a cell, but not "123456789012". Is this good? Is this bad? Not sure. BTW, we may also want to think about the number of columns we can fit when the window does not fill a wide-aspect-ration screen, e.g. on a 4x3 display, or when it's sized to half of the screen. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
