Choose Columns - what good is it?

[JustSomeGuy]

In a Win2k folder that contains a lot of subfolders, when you select
View\Choose Columns, you can choose to add "comment" and a couple of dozen
other info types to the column view. But it doesn't do any good because
there seems to be no way to type a "comment" nor to enter any data for any
other available column type, for a folder. What am I missing?

some file types in the properties, summary tab will have textbox for a
comment
i tried it with an mp3 file and the comment appeared in the column
but yeah, i don't see the point of it
