Warren, I like this, thanks! Grant and I were experimenting with scrollbars, hiding the information altogether, etc., but I think this strikes a good balance of less clutter versus useful information. I tweaked things a bit so that the per-service summaries still exist, but as a tooltip. Also, I preserved the original property text and added a new property for omitting the service from the summary string, so I left the POTS stuff alone.
