Before creating a feature request

• I checked the next branch to see if the feature has already been
  implemented

• I searched existing reports to see if it is already requested.

What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?

I use a theme that emulate the look of Gnome Shell which shows the desktop files as a grid. However, I'd like to only apply that grid style when I'm in drun.

How do you know that this problem exists today? Why is this important?

I made a theme using a grid and in run modi the text is truncated too early and so the line is unreadable. Same for ssh modi. So I wanted to use a list instead of a grid but I couldn't do it.

Here's an example of how it could looks like in a rasi file:

listview {
  ...
}
@media (mode: drun) {
  listview {
      columns: 6;
      lines: 3;
  }
}

Who will benefit from it?

Users who wants a theme that display drun in a grid but still want a list for window, run, ssh and so on without having a different keybind to call rofi with a different theme. In other word, they can launch rofi, cycle through the different modi and the style will adapt accordingly.
