Agreed.

Right. So the page-related settings should not be specific to one item
(column, table, database, etc). For example, setting a column's
visibility or hiding/unhiding a table should not be in the page-related
settings.

However, in table Browse, I should be able to access Settings > Main
panel > Browse mode.
