Default List view without thumbs (Request)

I'd like a list view without thumbnails... I really dislike truncated filenames. It's one of the few gripes I have with Media Stream; there is no view that shows long filenames decently. Here's a mockup I made that shows how the new view would look vs the old:



Compare it to the current view:



This could be a new view, or it could replace the current List view. I think the current List can be consolidated into Info List. They are very similar and I think it's confusing to have both.

OK, it just occurred to me that there might be an option somewhere to hide the thumbnail. Well.. there is It's "hidden" under the skin options. So I guess my request is somewhat nullified. But I think this should be the default setting... I also would like to add that the current List+Thumb view could use some space optimizations. Instead of being half thumb half list, it should be 1/4 thumb, 3/4 list.

No please don't change it, that would ruin my preferred TV Show view -

Don't worry I'm not planning on changing it - the so called 'wasted space' is only 'wasted' if the apsect ratio of the image is not a wide image (either square or a tall rectangle).

As for making the hidden thumbs list view the default, not going to happen - if you've already set the option why would you need that to be the default too?
