The threads view is currently not much space-effective.

For example, the State doesn't need to be a text column; actually, it doesn't have to be there at tall since it can be expressed by a background color or an icon, like it is in the debugging view - so user could hide these columns.

FYI, it would have to be both: icon + different colour. Using colour as an only indicator is not compliant with accessibility guidelines.
