These are a lot of little changes, though implementing them may not be as easy as they seem. Still, I think that small changes like this will really improve user experience, and that fine-tuning existing mechanics will benefit the community as new content is released. If you have any other ideas, post them! A bunch of little changes can make a very big difference for the quality of gameplay. Questions, comments, criticism welcome, that's what the forum is for.
