That would be a big step down the slippery slope of incorporating the View Manager into base calibre. The request to save column display, order, and width would very reasonably be next. Neither I nor @kovid wanted to go there, so we agreed on an "action" implementation to provide a base level of functionality while making an API available for plugins. Of course, @kiwidude might also not want to incorporate this stuff into the VM. Up to him.

- Probably a big ask: Could window sizes be added?
|
They 'can', but I won't do it. I don't want to get stuck in the quagmire of dealing with window placement on monitors that may or may not be there, with window sizes that may or may not fit. The pane sizes are expressed as fractions of window size, so manually adjusting the window will automatically adjust the layout.
