Would you file this as a feature enhancement on the bugzilla, because this
is about user client preferences. It not likely every user wants the same
view of the space, so getting requests on alternative ways to see it are
important for us being able to have *any* idea what users want.

This is great feedback, however there might be parts of this that are just
not possible at this time. Specifically, the part about seeing some number
of exits away breaks the entire spatial notion -- you can't see what's
connected to the room connected to this one, since you aren't that room.  We
can choose to change this, but that will probably not be before ag2 final on
april 15th.
