With enough columns shown in a report, Jira has trouble cramming them into the narrow screen width, especially if the filter editor is open on the left side.
Outlook 2003 added a nice way to deal with this exact same problem. They permitted multi-line (visually) rows in their tables. So I'll have "From", the message type, and when it was received on line 1, then on line two I get the whole subject.
Jira would really benefit from this same behavior. Instead of oddly wrapped or truncated summaries that have to fit in with about ten other fields that are important, they could get an entire line to themselves.
I created a couple mockups in Excel. They're not very pretty but I hope they get the idea across!

[JRASERVER-6667] Support multi-line tables in web interface queries

added a comment - Oh yes, and the interface could be very similar to the existing Issue Navigator column config we have now. Just have two lines we can put things on. The fancy formatting is optional.

Hi,
This is a bulk update to specific issues in the JIRA (JRA) project
As part of an effort to ensure we are transparent about the JIRA issues on jira.atlassian.com, we have decided to resolve those that have been open for multiple years with minimal activity and with a low number of votes. In light of the fact that JIRA is rapidly changing and that this issue may not be a valid request any longer, we will be resolving it today.
Votes are not the only metric that we use to determine the requests that are implemented, however they do factor in to our decision making process. We have decided that the combination of this issue being open for a long period of time, and it's low number of votes means that we are unlikely to implement it. If you would like thoughts on how we use jira.atlassian.com, please see: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/110373/how-does-the-jira-team-use-jira-atlassian-com
If you have believe this issue is still relevant, please comment on the issue and we will respond. We are watching all these issues that we bulk close.
Best regards
Roy Krishna and Josh Devenny
