Could the left edge BD be lockable?

I make frequent use of Book details->Show Book details in a separate locked window feature. Because it's in a separate window that stays on top, it can get in the way, which I solve by reducing the window to its title bar (Roll up), Having it on the left might be a better approach

The Configuration screen shots you've posted don't show the up/down/remove buttons for the Column 1/2/3 lists

Suggestion: for the various lists provide a context menu to move current item up/down and remove. Because the buttons are small I find them hard to click, that said I like them from an aesthetic perspective.
