I thank you for your continuing development of this great tool which, at 
least in my case, hugely improved the stability and performance, as well 
as decreased the maintenance needed on all my systems as a direct result 
of employing this great tool!

What are your plans with regards to the last point? The reason I am 
asking is because I am still on .35 (the last "stable" kernel released 
by Fedora) and I might not be able to use new releases if you introduce 
this restriction.

Also, would you consider my suggestion to include the number of members 
registered in a set to be displayed in the set headers (something like 
"Members: 15156") - this would help with managing the number of members 
in that set, which would be particularly useful for sets with large 
number of members.
