You can if you want I guess, but I don't think it's
needed...

Yes this would be good and I think the NL site has
something like this already...

Yes I think this would also make sense, though it would be
more complicated to implement than the other idea...

Why don't you post these ideas to the feature request
tracker:

  http://codecoop.org/tracker/?atid=112&group_id=7&func=browse

Having them there doesn't mean they get done any quicker
but it does mean that we can find good suggestions and
remember what stuff there is to do... :-)
