hmm, i'm not convinced. different number of columns in each category can save some vertical space - imagine a very long item name in one category, all other categories would have to be single-column as well. what does hie think?
imho, it's just a cosmetic issue - lowering priority. pls feel free to re-prioritize if you feel strongly about this.
