Yep, and thanks Alessandro for the screenie. Makes me want more!

@Nyall in Essen the talk was to start with what Alessandro wrote in his
email, so 1 dialog 'merging' all buttons/widgets/dialogs into one, reuse
as much as possible. So it was possible to get it into 3.0

Off course people (.../me) started brainstorming about features which
w/could be added too :-)

Your idea adds (I think) to the idea to make some kind of
'datamanagement-console' in near future, where you can create/copy
data(!), move data around (browser part) or delete it.
Your note fits in this isn't it?
