Could we get a text entry field back by the "Region" drop-down box? That was useful, and there's too many sims now to point-and-click. If the field could autocomplete from the sims list, that'd be even better.

Also, can we have a sim rating overlay tab? It was handy to be able to see which parts of the world were PG or M at a glance, rather than having to hover the mouse pointer over each sim for a second or two.

Hear, hear!

(and)

Hear, hear!

And how about a M or PG in the auction lists, both in the Find menu and on the web page.

Good ones, I concur. A slight green tint over PG and a slight red tint over Mature when that option is selected might be nice.

I endorse these suggestions and/or features.
One thing LL has never gotten around to polishing has been the UI. I sure wish the infamous "revamp" they had in mind for 1.2 hadnt been mostly cosmetic and noob-oriented.

I'm just glad that they finally restored the functionality of the pre-1.2 UI in 1.3. Now, if only we could assign key commands to open windows... and the minimap had a "close window" button... and... and... and...

Catherine try Ctrl-Shift-M to close the minimap.

while we're on the topic of UI improvements..
I think every normal command and menu option should have a shortbut key. I turn on and off the "land owners" option all the time and a shortcut key would be great for this (and others).
