Some of the stuff mentioned here really couldn't be done without support in all other clients. Also a note about freeloaders, a peer may not accept incoming connections because it's behind a firewall or it's just full (the listener won't accept any new connections). Neither of these make them freeloaders. Many of the fastest downloads i've seen come from behind firewalls (these guys are usually on a T1 at least).

The only way to kill a freeloader is to not allow them to connect to you (g-net connections not download). g-net doesn't include this info with download attempts, and trying to then connect back to the host just creates extra traffic and really tells you nothing.

What I'd like to see...

1) Fix the upload window - I'd rather not see 2000 messages just because there are no more upload slots.

2) Add an option to re-run a search. Right now you have to re-type it every time.

3) Add a way to add new results to a download list.

4) Fix the bug in the search window when there are too many results (redraw messes up completely for me).

5) Download/Upload time estimates - I do miss this from other clients.

6) More info in the upload/download windows - at least the user-agent would be nice.

Really, right now I'm using Gnucleus. It has most of these features already. Not as "purdy" as Lime, but works well enough.
