If this isn't the right place to add suggestions, I'd appreciate it if you could redirect me to the proper forum/thread.
1. Automatically add a visual clue if files are hidden in a mod
On occasion, I prefer a texture from an earlier placed mod, so I hide the file that overrides it later.
At the moment, I add a note that tells me what I did so that I don't forget to unhide a file when my mod structure changes.
But it would be great if there was an automatically generated visual clue whenever files are hidden: a different mod name colour, or an icon (a ghost maybe, or a crossed circle, an "x" - doesn't matter).
That way, anyone who uses this feature would be reminded to check the mod carefully before switching mods.
2. Rename downloaded mods in the downloads-column
Generally, the names of files reflect the name of the mod. But not always. Especially optional files often lack a clear reference to the corresponding main file.
Luckily, MO allows the renaming of files in the download folder and "Query Info" adds neccessary meta-information.
It would be more convenient, however, if we could rename the files in the download column and the already present correct meta-information would be automatically associated with the new file name.
And in case it needs to be said: these are suggestions, not demands. I appreciate the work that went into the development of MO as much as the result.
