Okeydokey.
Just as an FYI: you can actually do this on a per-user basis (change 
what columns show up in your buglists), and it'll remember it till you 
specifically reset it (use the change columns link at the bottom of the 
list).

But since you are correct that there are more target specific than host 
specific bugs, i'll change the default from host to target.

However, i'm not sure component will fit neatly on the screen. It'll 
cause more of the summary to get chopped off.

Well if you click on the word "keywords", it should also bring you to 
the list of existing keywords and their meanings. it's not just in the 
query help.

Also realize that for some browsers (like Mozilla), clicking the help 
button doesn't take you to queryhelp.cgi.

It actually reloads the page, and if you mouse over the elements, it 
displays a tooltip with help for each element.

But if the link in the words keywords isn't obvious enough, i can do 
what you ask.
