Especially on 2K/4K displays, nobody is likely to run anything full screen 
except video players, so ensuring that everything fits in the smallest window 
possible is more user friendly.
Every time I run setup, I have to reset the window size and every column width, 
as it stopped remembering layout a few years ago, possibly after a (Windows) 
disk clone, when I had to reset Cygwin permissions and ACLs!
Does it still require Admin...+System read/write ACEs to /etc/setup/setup.rc?
