New issue 17930 by michael.monreal: Task manager improvements
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=17930

Chrome Version : 3.0.196.0 (Developer Build 21889)
OS + version : Linux
Behavior in Chrome for Windows (optional) : not tested

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. open a few web pages; at least one with a long page title
2. open the task manager

What is the expected result?
The memory/cpu/network columns should always be visible

What happens instead?
The window has a fixed size and adds scrollbar, pushing the interesting  
columns out of view.


Considerations:
- one of the memory/cpu/network columns is what the user most likely wants  
to see here
- the page title is not really important, it's only needed to identify the  
correct tab/process. in most cases the
first characters or even the favicon will be enough for this


To improve things I propose the following changes:

1) make the default dialog size a bit (~ 50%) wider
2) remove the horizontal scrollbar
3) make memory/cpu/network columns stick to the right side of the listview
4) shorten long page titles with ellipses so that they no longer push the  
following columns out of the view
5) keep the window resizable and show more of the page title as space  
becomes available
