What would you like to see in an Accounts.adm Editor?

I'm working on a program similar to the CharacterViewer I put out a couple months back, this time for Managing UOX3 Accounts.
Generally, I have plans to allow adding, removing, and editing accounts including every tag we have in the accounts.adm (as well as handling the important flags).
Thus my question is this: what would users find most useful in an Accounts.adm tool?

* Ban/unban characters
* Transfer characters between accounts
* View details about the characters in the account (you can tie it into your other tool this way
)
And generally, you might want to display some statistics too
* Number of accounts
* Number of players
* Number of banned accounts

It would also be nice if it could check the orphans.adm and the worldfiles for player chars, that are no longer bound to an account, and then allow the user to add them back to an account.

Banning will be there by default, though I can't attest to whether it works on UOX3's end.
Character transferring can be done (as you can edit the character slots on a per-account basis, but I have yet to come up with a simple way to do so).
Statistics are a good idea, I just have to find a good place to put them on the GUI.

Importing characters from Orphans.adm is a good idea, and perhaps something I can add along with the "Character Transfer" functionality. Thoughts/ideas on how this could be most easily accomplished with where the program is at currently are welcome.
Please note I have released v0.1, which has the basic functionality I wanted to achieve. Future iterations will improve upon that functionality and add new capabilities as well.
