Great work! What I like about this list is that you can throw out an idea and like magic it gets implemented 20 minutes later. 8^)
But seriously... it's very inspiring interacting with a bunch of clever people all focussed on making JUMP work better. I checked with the uDig guys... DnD is generally a bear, but for data files specifically it might not be too bad. It's very similar to handling the cut-n-paste client stuff, which Jon already did in JUMP for various things (ever tried copying the Feature Info grid into Excel? Works like a charm...) So maybe one day we can look at this...
