[Bug 809657] Re: changing views from miller column should use the location of the last column

 

Notice: The bugs linked by me have all been resolved, but Daniels
report-issue still standing.

One thing to ponder:

If you browse somewhere in column mode and switch to folder view -> that last folder should be opened.
BUT
What happens if you switch back to column view? 
- Will / be the leftmost column? (resulting in a potentially very large amount of columns)
- Will $HOME be the leftmost column? (resulting in demand for a case for: i.e. /usr/local/bin - not everything is in $HOME)
- Will the opened folder be the leftmost column? (resulting in not being able to navigate backwards)
- Will the previous columns somehow be remembered and restored? (What if that path is no longer the valid one, due to navigation?)
