Another suggestion - fully customizable multi-row status bar, another row for example for more multimedia info (EXIF / IPTC / ID3 tag...).

Fully customizable, named column layouts are de rigeur in file managers these days.

I'm confident we'll eventually see them in FreeCommander.

But in the meantime, a productive shortcut (meaning: easier to program in the short term) would be for FreeCommander to support TC's wdx (content) plugin specification. Just about everything you could possibly want in a lister column is available via those plugins in TC and the other file managers that support the spec.

I know developers have pride of ownership in their code and resist leveraging competitors' work, but the TC plugin specs are freely available and the amount of community development for them is astonishing.

If FreeCommander was a commercial product, I would understand reluctance to draw attention to a competitor's product by supporting that competitor's specification for plugins. But FreeCommander is not commerical.

Seems to me FreeCommander is free, the TC plugins are free, the plugin interface spec is free... a match made in heaven!
