Description

My personal take on a columns UI is that it puts 2-dimensional data in 2 dimensions (instead of only one dimension). In other words, the file manager shows a folder's parents AND siblings. In a tree view, this is done by expanding both parents and siblings in the vertical direction. In the columns view, parents are expanded horizontally and siblings are expanded vertically. You end up doing a lot less scrolling.

I'd really like to see it in Thunar.
