None of which handle he issue as a whole or propose a solutions that have been 
suggested here... Further more, since the things are still in status quo, I 
have to deduct that none of these has been considered "The Right Solution" by 
a person that could actually implement it. Some input from our missing in 
action GUI guru(Oy Peter, yes you!) would be appropriate here in my opinion, 
preferably in a form of a spec how this is supposed to work and then perhaps 
somebody, maybe even me(since my other stuff is waiting for a spec also) 
could work on it....

This has worked for me since I did it (or I just have been lucky...) :P.
