However, after update from <4.8.18 to 4.8.18, the "default configuration" is to use the previously saved settings, which is why bug 3758 "fubar long file listing in right pane" manifests.

In a new installation with no previously saved settings rather than an upgrade,
upstream bug 3758 is not apparent.
