Describe the feature/enhancement
I'd like an optional view where books are listed with one row per book, with a number of customizable columns. The columns to pick from would include the enterable metadata fields as well as things like file size, duration, number of chapters, number of audio files, and perhaps path, too. Album art width. Basically any aspect that abs is aware of, could be an optional column. Perhaps bitrate too if abs scans that.
Then, to be able to pick and choose which columns to display, and in what order, resize them, and then click on a column to sort by that attribute.
Some of these might be useful for finding your next listen, but what I'm picturing it helping me with is metadata managing. Figuring out which books are missing chapters or only have one or two chapters. Which books have low-res art. Which books are 6GB and should be converted down. Which books are missing asin. Missing narrator. Having a series name but missing series number. Lots of possible uses.
With that in mind, it might make sense to limit this to admins, or at least make it an admin's option to decide who to grant this ability to.

Is this the same as #729?
It seems like these should be merged
@hobesman commented on GitHub (Apr 10, 2023):
In my mind they're separate. This is more geared toward library/metadata management, whereas the other "description" view is more aimed at browsing for the next book to listen to. Ideally the aesthetic would take precedence over other considerations. Whereas this request is about the ability to sort, to display as much information in as dense a way as possible and still be functional.
Just my thoughts.
@advplyr commented on GitHub (Apr 10, 2023):
You see these as being different list views entirely?
@hobesman commented on GitHub (Apr 10, 2023):
I do.
One could be called like "Summary view" and one referred to as "Data view" or "table view" or something.

Can I +100 this request? I'd love to be able to fine tune my book metadata, and an Explorer like table view would be perfect for that (as opposed to opening every single book and finding the ones in series that are missing a narrator or have deviating info).
Customizable columns would be chef's kiss.
