There's no real need to put the column order in prefs as it's simple drag-
N-drop.

Once the columns are displayed in the headers pane, you can do the usual 
drag the column header to the ordered-place you want it.

But while drag-N-drop can be used to change the order (and FWIW the 
column width, drag the divider to the right of the column you want to 
change, instead of the column header itself), it can't be used to show/
hide the columns entirely, so that's put in prefs.
