Option to nag you for non-default icon

Area:
user icons, posting, commenting

Summary:
When posting or commenting, I'd love it if there was an option to remind me with "Do you really want to use your default icon?"

Description:
I'm constantly going back and editing my posts/comments because, two seconds after hitting the submit button, I realise I should have chosen a different icon. Perhaps I'm the only person who does this? But if not, I was thinking, it might be handy to have some kind of setting to make it ask me each time, "No, really, CHOOSE AN ICON. You have heaps of them! One of them is perfect for this post, if you just stop and think for a moment!"

Ahem.

Implementation: some kind of per user setting, I guess?

Warn if crossposted security may change

Title:
Warn if crossposted security may change

Area:
Crossposting

Summary:
If someone is using different security settings on DW and another site, editing a crossposted entry can change remote security settings. This is not obvious, so I think we should warn for it.

Description:
If a user has a default security setting of Friends-Only on Livejournal or another site, but a default setting of Public on Dreamwidth, the crossposter will respect this. However, when the user edits the entry, the Dreamwidth security setting will be applied to the cross-posted entry on the other site. There is no warning for this, and I have seen people who were confused, thinking it was a glitch. Since this is not a glitch but a standard behavior, I think providing a warning when editing a cross-posted entry (to the effect of "Your Dreamwidth access setting will be applied to all crossposted entries. If you want to preserve different settings, you will need to manually edit security levels on your cross-posted entries.") might help relieve confusion and remind people that they need to check their cross-posted entries for security levels.

Please make imported entries act like crossposted entries

Title:
Please make imported entries act like crossposted entries

Area:
Importing, crossposting

Summary:
When editing imported entries on Dreamwidth, the edits should also be applied to the original post (similar to crossposted entries).

Description:
Occasionally I will edit old entries, to modify tags or fix errors, etc. I was extremely pleased to find that when I edit a crossposted post on DW, its counterpart on LJ is also edited (this made me decide to buy a paid account at DW, in fact). However, if I edit any of my many *imported* entries, the original post it was imported from at LJ is not modified.

It would make a lot of sense to treat imported entries like crossposted entries, and might make people feel more comfortable about coming over to DW, because they know they will have a true mirror of their archive without having to edit two different posts if they need to make a change to one of their older posts.

Points: historify purchase, use and transfer

Title:
Points: historify purchase, use and transfer

Area:
payments

Summary:
Let users see a history of whatever they've done with their points. This would probably involve revamping 'Order History'.

Description:
Since you're now buying points and not directly stuff, it makes sense to me to let users keep track whatever they've done with them (buying, using, transferring). Something like:

* date - bought x points for $x - paid with method x - status - details
* date - used x points - status - details
* date - transferred x points - status - details

Summary:
You're notified by e-mail when you're buying points but not when you're transferring them. I'd like to be.

I'd really like to be. :)
