Hi,
I know that vertical mode has been available for ages in phpMyAdmin but I'm wondering if it's useful.
How did it get there in the first place?
I think it's there from very ancient times :-). Actually Marc has committed this in 2001.
I'd also suggest to make some sort of survey about this before removing it. As for me, I have never used it either, but I could imagine it would be useful for tables with *lots* of columns. It is indeed questionable whether it pays off to have vertical mode for the price of increased code complexity.
I think it can be added to list of features we ask whether people know/use in the survey. But it would postpone removal for quite a long time.
