Using the layer explorer - the ability to lock column width to a fixed dimension, regardless of contents would avoid the situation in which long names, inherited from revit, would expand the column width.
At the moment double clicking on a layer does three things: selects all objects within the layer, expands the layer, and resizes the name column to make all names fully visible. This quickly pushes other columns outside of the area of the explorer, so that sideways scrolling is required or constant resizing of the columns.
Removing the expanding layer double click function and just retaining select all on double click would also fix this, although the issue would still exist when expanding layer for whatever reason. The ability expand a layer comes from the layer arrow anyway, so the double click function isn't required.
