On my MacBook Pro 17" running Mountain Lion, in Finder I can go to the Pictures (and Movies) folder and, in column view, I can right click on the head of the columns and add 'Dimensions'. The problem is I'm not given the option in the other, normal folders.
Is there a terminal command or something that will enable the 'Dimensions' column for all folders?

I'm not sure if it's possible to enable the 'Dimension' attribute (nor 'Resolution') to make it just as easy to add these columns to any folder as the "normal" ones. But if you want to add one or both to folders which don't display these attributes then:
Also, it appears these attributes will continue to show up in the list for that folder and can be hidden and displayed as wanted without having to change the file name again.
(Lack of extensive testing means it's possible that at some point or for some folders the method may fail but it seems fairly stable so far.)
