Thanks for the review! It took me a while to repost, due to Christmas/New Year vacations. These patches introduce rather separated (no new interface or similar), but useful features. They are implemented in separated code chunks making use of existing screen functions/API. Therefore the code changes are just some lines. Would be great to see the patches getting applied.
