At the TUB, several of us discussed on how we could manage this by
creating a new module that adds an action to all models which would
let each user to configure his own tree view. That is, adding or
removing fields or adding some fields for search only (hidden fields).

For me, this solution is good enough because:
- It is relatively simple to implement
- Can be developed as a generic server module
- Does not require any client changes
- Solves the column-order with drag and drop (but not in the same view)
- Could be extended to manage the behaviour that you want when new
modules are installed

For me, current behaviour is ok because users who're not very advanced
can push the "Filter" button and fill in the search there. Also,
auto-filter does not allow searching hidden fields and requires to
resize the column if the search is longer thant the space the column
uses.
