This commit seems totally reasonable. The thing is, that awkward
multiplication was in there explicitly, so I wanted to figure out if
Lars was thinking about something we are not. The affected code was
copy and pasted around lots of places, so I took some time to play the
"git blame" game on different reference points. I eventually tracked
it back to this commit:

The intended usage here is to "add per repo settings to optionally
disable the columns if sidewide enabled". This is the opposite of "add
sidewide setting to optionally disable the columns if per repo
enabled". Multiplication does both. Only the first property is
desired. Therefore, I'm going to merge this.
Reasoning seem solid?
