@jibel Our original design had the info lined up into effective columns, so you wouldn't have the eye jumping problem. That's been a touch trickier to implement but we're working on fixing that now.
I think the problem at the root of this bug is that if you want to see both Importance and Status then you have no option but for each bug report to take up two lines in the listing. Linked to that, when you relatively few bits of information switched on you actually just see a load of wasted space.
We have a conflict between helping users of narrower screens (according to Google Analytics the majority of LP visitors) to see the various data options, with allowing users of wider screens to make the most of their vertical screen space.
Huw's working on a tweak to the design that would allow for having the following all on one line:
* status
* importance
* bug number
* bug title.
If you selected that information, plus icons such as whether the bug has a linked bzr branch, you'd have the same use of space as with the currently live design. If you wanted any of the new info, that's when it'd pop a second line underneath.
