Two questions so far:
1:  I get an odd full screen flash as the windows pop up.  Any idea?
2:  Can the windows be changed in size?  The download I tried with no
config file will not allow me to stretch the size or if I make them full
screen they only fill a portion of the screen.  I could see the group
and event editors being usefull as larger screens and being able to see
more within the windows.

Otherwise, looks great.  I don't know if I would bother creating a bmp
of the house and draging icons over it, but hey, some people might want
that and the automation catalogs seem to make a big point of showing a
room with icons over the lights and such.  As if I am going to go to the
computer room and pull up the screen just to turn on a light.  The dang
wall switch is closer and easier than that kind of automation!!!
