This is good but, there needs to be a way to add websites to the farm list, in the GUI somewhere. Also, it would be nice if there were sets of managed lists that we could choose from. Allow users to submit custom lists, allow us to download and use custom lists from others, and establish some sort of grand repository and I would definitely recommend it.
