To track actions in trojita, one could either - use a macro/helper for creation - require enlisting them by hand or - install an eventfilter on the applications to intercept ActionAdded/Removed events on all objects/widgets. As for mapping, one could simply use a data() field of the QAction to store the "ActionRole" (ie. the config key, text() is obviously a lame idea) > Let's track this at [1].

I thik this just rephrased: "I want to get rid of the preview pane as it also steals screen estate (next to loading evil spam mail)" Cheers, Thomas
