I would like to have additional columns, e.g. the short package name and the prerelease flag.
Apart from more information, I could sort by these.
There may be additional interesting info for additional columns...

origin of this idea is
#269 "sort sequence of name column"
#268 "missing packages in local list (This PC)"

@hg42 whether a package version is pre-release or not is really determined by the version number, which is already included in the columns, so I don't think an additional column would serve any benefit. What are your thoughts?

you mean, every pre package definitely has some code word in it's version, like preview, beta, alpha, pre, test,...?
and every package with such a code word is definitely pre?
For me it's not clear enough.
e.g. what about this package: ShareX 10.0.0-fix, pre or not?

pre is relevant for me, to quickly see which packages may be questionable for a stable system.
I mainly use pre packages, if I want/need some new feature or a fix.
But I prefer using stable packages at least for important things, so I have a look on them.

The extra column allows sorting by this criteria.
And it's a small column (with"pre" as header)

exactly, yes. That is how nuget, and therefore chocolatey, works.

well, that had indeed remained hidden to me 8-O
I'd still prefer a column for sorting.
But it's not so important now (with my new knowledge ;^ ))

I too would like to see a column with the package short name - in some cases it is a lot clearer than the long name :-)
(Release date could also be interesting but that would be another issue I guess)

(GH-270) Ability to show additional package info
a084945 
A request was made to allow additional information to be shown when
viewing a package, including the id of the package, and whether it is a
prerelease package.  This has been enabled as a feature which can be
turned on and off.  It isn't enabled all the time, as not everyone wants
this additional information to be displayed.
