We'll see if we can add this feature in a future update; thanks for the suggestion.

I use (smart) playlists for all kinds of purposes: searching for
movies to watch, checking metadata, creating themed lists, etc. For
all these purposes I want and need to see different criteria of a
movie (in list view), but with the current version of Usher (4305)
this is not possible. E.g. whenever I remove the counter column from a
"Check Metadata" playlist (where I don't need to see a counter), it is
also removed from the "Most played movies" list (where I definitely
need to see the counter column). This makes smart playlists almost
unusable for me, because I use them mostly for checking all kinds of
metadata, but with the current set-up I basically have to reconfigure
a playlist every time I want to use it. Very annoying! So please,
makes Usher work just like iTunes, where the display/view settings are
saved per playlist and not per view mode.
Thank you.
