Done.

Full-stop. Period. Dot. Whatever, it's there now ;)

Yep. The timers and verbose logging options are going under "Advanced".

I put two of them in the filter dialog. I missed the other two (in the
general section) until you said that.

I've switched to photoshop (psd) format as all three programs can read psd
