Indeed, I enjoyed the idea as well.. and yes Silo I mentioned I could design something similiar for people who disliked my big icon theory... unfornately with mirc, its hard to use a neat feature like that when the list refreshes... however in my enviroment for the grid I am using, the list doesn't refresh itself when something happens to it, it just appends appropriately without moving your current status...
honestly I would rather see a mix of Chains list with Zans, but in a treeview where you could easily +/- the list categories of owners, ops, users, etc... that would be more useful in a larger network for most people... well for me anyways...
