3) I expected the selected column views to be present, even after I changed view e.g. to a different folder. At least for that same folder it should stay the same.
4) From "Home folder view": After I add the new column option: "Star" to toggle view in nautilus this column is added. However it does not seem to be persistent. Whenever I change the view, or close the nautilus window it is gone the next time I open a new tab / or window. Files and folders marked as star from this view however, seem to be persistent, since they are visible under "Starred" items shortcut in left pane. This does seem to work from: "Documents", "Downloads", "Music", "Pictures", or "Videos" view in left-pane. However it does not work from "Home", or any other non-standard folders / views added as shortcuts to left pane.
There are no pending updates for the system at the time of writing. All though I have not been able to test this on another computer, it seems to be a bug, or other settings preventing persistence on my end. If I add other columns like "Recency" instead, these for some reason seem to stay persistent whenever I switch to a different view.
Have anyone else seen this phenomenon? From my view it seems like a bug.
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
