Great. I too have a few items for the wishlist (in random order)

- TZUTC kludge.
  Some tossers use that for sorting messages.

- default decoding configurable per aera.
  As it is, one can only globally configure the decoding to use when 
  there is no CHRS: kludge in the message. My personal opinion is that
  every message using non ASII characters should have a CHRS kludge but
  the reality is that sometimes it is missing. A general dafault may
  be enough for those that mostly read Russian areas, but default CP866
  is uncomfortable for us who read Ducth and German areas as well. So 
  in adadiion to the global default I would like something like:
  chrs: UTF-8 4
    default: CP850
[..]   
  areas:  
  - name: R50.SYSOP
    chars: CP866 2
    default: CP866
  - name: SYSOPS.NL
    chars: UTF-8 4
  - name: NODES.024
    chars: CP850 2
    default: LATIN-1 
  - name: UTF-8
    origin: UTF-8 Evangelist      

- Origin configurable per area.


That is about all I can think of now...

Once again thank you for this nice present to the UTF-8 enthousiasts. :-)
