They necessarily don't have to be images or GUI elements, a simple 'X' could do too. (However such a cue before the package name would be better). This could eliminate the need for an extra column, making things more compact. - -- Vibhav Pant vibhavp@gmail.com Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
