fanboy, this looks good:

So I think I will take this change. But it doesn't help with the checkboxes :)

Maybe make the checkboxes a bit darker for the headings, too:

Dr.Evil, that makes the filters look disabled in comparison.

How about indent the filter checkbox's to the right? (keep them in the same row, just move them to right) or indent the subscription checkbox to the left?

or insert a small gap between filter and subscription?

How about this?

(Just posting this to potentially inspire some ideas)

I personally feel a little awkward with it since I'm not used to that order.

another suggestion, use a seperator? similar to ones use in the bookmarks.

I think that comments should have a disabled checkbox.
I think the blank space always looks kind of weird, it's just worse for subscriptions because there are some comments in a row.

Why separate something that belongs together?

You can reorder columns using Drag&Drop ;)
But that doesn't look nice either in the real extension because the "Enabled" column is wider than the checkbox (centering the checkbox isn't possible).

I doubt that. Why show a checkbox for something that cannot be enabled/disabled by definition?

A bit off-topic, but speaking about icons, I have to tell you that statusbar icon is unreadable. It's impossible to see 3 letters except if you are at 10cm of the screen. :/

For statusbar it should be an icon without letter, or just one letter.

pirlouy, yes - this is off-topic. Question: does it have to be readable? I think it should be recognizable, that's the important thing.

So maybe you should think about removing these letters... But it's just a suggestion, maybe finding a new better icon without letters could be the right solution.

Sorry, I didn't want to create a thread for this.
