I have a preferred set of view settings for folders - which columns are shown, sort order, grouping by thread (or not) etc.  But I can't see any way to apply the same set of settings to all my folders simultaneously and have to go through making the same set of changes to every folder separately, which is slow and painful.  Some way to copy / paste view settings between folders or select multiple folders to apply changes to all of them at once would be great.

It is possible to apply the list view settings to all the subfolders under one folder by right-clicking on the column bars at the top of the list view, and then going going all the way down.

Though it is still not possible to apply the settings to all the folders under one account, and it is even less possible to apply the settings to all the folders across all the accounts. As I'm using Thunderbird on several computers, and each one with several accounts (private, family, enterprise...), I've been wishing for that feature to show up at some point. Please 🙏
