What makes you think that these things aren't under development, or already
exisiting? Have you done any research at all, even asked questions on a
mailing list?
This is an Open Source project, Paul. If you really cared, you would offer to
help, or at least ask for help, instead of posting a useless and
poorly-researched rant. Money, code, and other forms of assistance to get
the features you want are welcome; desctructive criticism is a waste of
everyone's time.
