It would be nice to be able to have multiple gesture sets you could switch between - at least one for male and one for female. I was wearing my female avatar the other night trying out some clothes I had made.. and of course I hadn't changed my gestures / sounds from my usual male settings. I was just hanging out for a bit that way and it was remarked how disturbing / odd it was to hear these male sounds coming from my female avatar. Of course I could change all my gesture settings every time I switch gender but that's a big pain.

Another use for this system beyond fixing the male / female issue would be any kind of avatar that has a very specific theme. Say, an alien or fantasy race. You could have a gesture set just for that race with appropriate sounds.

Bonus points for making these settings savable with outfit folders.

BTW - I realize Tweke Underhill suggested this over a year ago in beta - I did search before I posted. Its been so long though and there were no replies so I figured the idea could be re-introduced. Props to Tweke for being first though :)

I fully endorse this idea.

the multiple sets would also be good for having macro commands for one outfits attachment, and another for another
