[Enhancement] Set default screen when opening a fileclass file #452

Currently, when I open a fileclass file, the default is to open the dialog in "Table view". if there are a lot of file which use that fileclass, this can take a long time and (it appears) a lot of memory since it retrieves all of the matches to figure out which notes belong to that fileclass. I would like an option to choose "Fileclass fields" or "Fileclass settings" when the dialog opens up so I don't have to wait for the list of notes to load. Loading the note list should be done lazily.

Sounds reasonable.

As a workaround, you can also reduce the number of records per page that could speed up a lot There's a new setting for that (to set globally the number of "Result per page")

or you can define it fileClass per fileClass
