Change "Manage Circle" display

I just posted about this with a screencap, but here's the text:

When I go to "Manage Circle", I get a screen where the columns of the table with the info ("Gives you access" and "Subscribes to you") are much larger than the columns where I click to make a decision, so they draw the eye. Worse, much worse, is the way they are color-coded: *bright* green and DANGER DANGER red. The first thing that hits the eye when that table comes up is DANGER DANGER red, which we've all been trained to see as the "Must deal with this now!" warning.

So: it makes me anxious, it means I can't look at that list without feeling like the red is signals a PROBLEM I should be SOLVING, because people don't LIKE ME so I should DANCE HARDER. Or something.

I hate this. At the very least the colors need to be different, more neutral and un-emotional. At best I'd like to be able to suppress display of the Gives you access/Subscribes to you columns, so I can ignore them and improve my sanity.
