[Kmymoney-devel] Ledger View Column Widths

Is there a major reason why the column widths behave the way they do?
It doesn't seem very logical to me at the moment, or in fact ever.

A slight silly, but not untypical, example is that if I choose to use a
complex system for check numbers, such that the whole number is not
visible, the only way I have available is to stretch the whole window.
However, even that doesn't help, as the whole of the increase is
grabbed by the Details column.  I accept that it is likely that that
column is going to need to be the widest.  Then, why are the
Payment and Deposit columns twice the width of the Balance column,
when that column may be likely to have the greatest value?  Ditto for
the Date.

Why not allow the user to set the column widths according to *his*
needs?
