Let's call it a non-optimal feature :-) The “Use as Default Columns” 
applies to all folders except a few with explicit settings (such as Sent 
Messages).

I believe the submailboxes of Sent Messages inherit the settings of the 
parent mailbox. If you change the columns of “Sent Messages” and 
then select the submailboxes to do “Revert to Default Mailboxes” 
then it'll look wrong at first, but then try to change the selection of 
mailboxes and I believe it clears up. This last part is of course a bug.
