Bug Description

I think with current displays resolutions we should increase width of left column in ZMI adding 100px or 150px to it. It's uncomfortable to work with current width frame, move it every time in browser after bin/buildout annoying too.

We could certainly merge a patch which did this, preferrably one which
uses a cookie to remember the sizes (so that we don't impose policy).

I think good idea to add this settings to Browser Preferences page, where other settings like Text Area Width or Show Top Frame.

Quick and dirty solution is changing in file lib/python/App/dtml/manage.dtml
<frameset cols="175,*">
to
<frameset cols="275,*">
