I'm not very familiar with the KDE 3 code at that time. Currently KDirModel in 
kdelibs defines the number of available columns 
(http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdelibs/kio/kio/kdirmodel.h?view=log). 
Currently there is no generic approach, which allows to add custom columns...

I'm wondering though, that you could _add _columns in KDE 3 by a 
KIOSlave.Which custom columns are shown in your case? But well: I did not 
write a custom KIOSlave yet, so it might be that I miss something fundamental 
here...
