I would like to see an option which configures if usernames are always shown.

Before I invest more time in this, please let me know if you would like to see this kind of feature.
The current implementation derives its setting only from the config file. Currently, the u hotkey just toggles the username visiblity of the selected item.

I am imagining the following ways of implementing this feature:

  • Change the current show_usernames from boolean to enum/int (0 = never, 1 = selected item, 2 = always). The u hotkey toggled between those options
  • Make it configurable through the config file (what to do with the u hotkey?)
  • Make it configurable through a cli param (what to do with the u hotkey?)

Hi, thanks for the input. I like the idea, I would go with option 1 but perhaps simplify it a little: Instead of cycling it could just toggle like now but for all entries instead of just the active one. The "cycle through" would also be fine but then there is the need for a migration step in the config option. Perhaps a little bit of overkill.
