filebrowser, target resolution reduction

[Thomas Lübking]

errrr... to actually see all labels in a depth 7 (that's not much) tree, i 
just had to make the browser 800px wide =D

in case
a) we want to keep the UI
b) amarok should not use a vertical view stacking (by def.)

would it maybe an option to keep the entries at a minimum width > the pure 
icon + the triangle and compensate this by an autoflow, i.e.
   you move the mouse to the left and the bar slides towards the beginning 
while if 
   you move it to the right it slides towards the end.

(the max bar width is set by the acceptable resolution factor*)

this does still not allow unlimited** wide bars but they could be much wider* 
(allowong more text) than they're now though the browser keeps pretty narrow.

Cheers
Thomas

* e.g. you slide by 3px by 1 px mouse movement - this still provides a 4px 
precise grid, while 266px would have shown my 800px tree (atm. i cannot even 
shrink the browser to 266px)

** one step further would be to increase the pointer resolution by 
additionally warping it against the movement, but this causes all kinds of 
troubles esp. with pen devices (i.e. you must ensure the user is using a 
mouse/touchpad) - the usability is however ahead of the mainly proposed target 
resolution reduction and the bar can be unlimited
