1. To format "Votes", "Minutes", "File Size" and "Video Bitrate" as comma separated values, just like Budget and Box Office values are.

2. Expander (+) to be situated at the end of the last viewable line, instead at the end of the first line. It's handy because of continuity of reading. One moment, you reach the last word of the last viewable line, then you have to raise your eyes to expand, and when you expand the field, you loose your focus, you don't know any more where you've been at. And after expanding, even once last word in the last viewable line isn't last anymore. Likely it became the first word in the once first not viewable line.
I doubt it's possible to move expander there, considering the number of collapsed lines is adjustable, but like nostra once said:"Everything is possible".  8)

3. The same thing with "collapser" (-), only to be situated at the end of the last line.

Thanks for considering.

My TODO list is growing...

Sorry, I forgot to tell you that these were suggestions for v2.9.9.21 ;)

I am pretty sure that I will implement most of them in 1.0, but i got your point :)

I would not be happy with this behaviour. If I'm expanding one field rather than all, it's likely I'll want to collapse it when I'm done. The way it is now, the control stays with the pointer. Yes, if the end of the expanded field extends off-screen and I scroll to the end while reading the contents, then having the control at the end might be a nice touch. But I rarely do that. If "continuity of reading" is important, I use the Expand All command, and scroll as I read. These controls are used far more often to expand and then collapse the field. Having to chase after the control after using is would be a PITA.
