Great!

One thing I would like ask is have you started any key mappings for shortcuts?
OMP has done this recently and it makes operation a breeze, it also ties in with CSSU users to.
Hmm. I've actually been toying with the idea of assigning macros to keys; press one button and send of a whole string of IR commands. Sort of how fancy universal remotes like the Harmony work. But yeah, assigning keys to each tab should be quite simple, I think. Let me play around with it a bit. I suppose a mix of both would be possible as well, if it isn't too confusing.

And yeah, I do really need to catch up to what's going on in the CSSU world, I suppose.

Lastly I can't remember if I asked you about the Favourites Tab.
Is it really required on the tab bar?
That is a very good question. I've already had someone tell me that the favorites would work better as a pop-up menu than as a panel. I'm kind of thinking that I should put another arbitrary button on the left hand side of the tab bar for favorites; that might get it out of the way while still keeping it close when you really need it. (It'd also give me more space to add yet more panels to each collection...)

It's nice seeing pasta shaped updates in HAM again!
Mmm, pasta and ham. Time for me to go get a snack.
