Ok, how about this:

For 1, I can put back the alternate strategy button. Although when we get nearer some future post 2.2 release, we may wish to consider, based on feedback, whether to remove some of the various pull list interfaces. Users don't like things being taken away, but they also don't like having too many ways to do one thing (see serials).

For 2, can you live with an amendment to the commit message that tells site admins if they want something like that, they just need to add CSS in FlatFielder.xsl, which controls print output for Flattener-based grids?

For 3, I can add hold type; that's a good one. But if there's a less specific sense that there aren't enough columns on the pull list, I don't think that's something we have to worry about yet if we're not taking away the other interfaces. Where there are too many columns, users can hide them by control clicking the column headers to get the column picker dialog. Changes in that dialog should persist per-user if I add a user setting for it in a DB upgrade script to go along with this commit, so that's one more action item for me.

How's that?
