Today I noticed that the grid that the library view uses, allows you to resize the row heights.

I've always thought the rows in the library view are too big for my tastes, but I assumed it was due to the library (Qt?) that calibre uses.

I think it would be great to add this as a preference, to allow the rows to be shrunk down to minimum height by default.

This allows much more books to be displayed, and IMHO looks much more usable. This is especially important when using a macbook, and there is very limited vertical screen space

Thanks, I hope you consider my suggestion :-)
