I don't much like black box solutions, I want to know what's there before I change it and I want to see that it's changed after I execute the command.
This lets me see what I'm doing or about to do and lets me see that it's been done.
My ratings reflect the fact that it's new to me and I don't know what other features could be offered and I don't know how stable it is yet.
