Wrong column size

I remember "solving" the problem using a text editor on, as I recall one 
of the gconf files (that stores the column width).

There apparently is a command-line tool to modify the same database, but 
I brute-forced it.

Looks like the file, on Linux, at least is

~/.gconf/apps/gnucash/window/pages/budget/%gconf.xml

and the key to modify is "name_width" (mine is around 450 right now).
