REVISION SUMMARY
  RKWard's file browser currently relies on the default view provided by `KDirOperator` for its file browser panel rather than defining its own preferred view. This is discouraged because:
  
  - The current default view ("Short view") is probably not ideal anyway, as it will result in a horizontal scrollbar
  - We are preparing to change the default to something much less appropriate for your use case; see D12326: [WIP/open dependencies] In Short View, display icons on top and increase icon size <https://phabricator.kde.org/D12326>
  
  Therefore, just use Tree View by default, which is much more appropriate anyway. We recently did this for Kate too in D12224: Use Tree View as the default view mode in the Filesystem Browser plugin <https://phabricator.kde.org/D12224>
