Attached is a screenshot of what I believe is the standard settings layout for Honeycomb and ICS, at least on Tablets.

Is this a native view of Android? If yes, then I don't think we have it in B4A or am I wrong?

In any case, I would like to use a similar setting-screen in one of my apps. Any ideas how to create such a setting-screen? I thought about using one activity with 3 panels. The left panel with a list-view and then a panel on the right with another listview or a scrollview. Finally a third panel, initially hidden, but to be shown when something is being selected in previous panel.

Any thoughts/hints on this?

Thanks!

Ok thanks, I will try to do my own.

I think I read in another thread that fragments are not supported yet in B4A. Are you planning to add support for it so either you or our great library-developers can create (if they want) UI-interfaces which require fragments?

Tablets are getting more popular (at least I have received many requests for tablet-support) and I believe there are native views in Android-SDK which require fragments that could be very useful for showing landscape-layouts on tablets.

This is probably implemented with fragments. However you should be able to get similar results with the solution you proposed.
