      The agreed scope of this issue for 4.3 is as follows:

      • Column sort order admin screen:
        • Add controls to set the default width of each column
        • Add action menu with an option to hide a column to hide the column by default
        • Add an "Add columns" menu to add back any hidden columns
        • Add a preview to show an example of the question bank table with the configured defaults
      • Question bank teacher view:
        • Add an action menu to each column header with options to hide, move or resize the column, providing keyboard-accessible interfaces.
        • Add draggable move and resize icons to each column header that appear on hover.
        • Add an "Add columns" menu to add back any hidden columns.
        • Adding overflow scrolling to the table, so it scrolls within the available page width.

      Out of scope for this issue, but will be addressed later through separate issues:

      • Combining the checkbox, type and question name into a single column.
      • Hiding some columns by default on new installs, to provide a cleaner interface for the most common use cases.
      • Fixing any inconsistencies with table styling in other areas of Moodle.
      • Add column pinning/freezing
      • Change the bulk edit UI to use the sticky footer widget, following the bulk edit on the course page.

      The UI mockups (including all of the above) can be seen here:
