I would find it helpful if I were able to sort columns in the advnaced window. I would like to do this by being able to click a clumn header and have the column auto sort to ascending, then if clicked again, auto sort to descending.
I dont think this feature would be hard to incorporate into the program. Anyone one else think they would use this type of feature?

Well I dont see the need to have it in the Advance window.... I mean its just a waste of coding time if you ask me.

same for me, i don't need it. lot's of the stats change very quickly (upload/download rate) so it would be very dificult to get them ascending.....

I'd like to use it to see who I have uploaded the most too, and who I have downloaded the most from. I completely disagree, I think these features would be very handy.

But why? Why would you want to check who you upload to? There is no point to it. Unless you are trying to track people.

Wow, peranoid much?
I simply like looking to see what I've uploaded and downloaded so far. I guess I'm the only one.

Oh well i guess the majority wins ;)

I just see no need for this kind've feature. I usually just glance at it to see if i am connected to a good section of the swarm.

I also like the idea of sorting, in my case I would like to sort by % completed. Now, whether there is any point to sorting the list or not... it imposes some form of order on the list, which is something I like to see, but beyond that I don't see a strong need for sorting.

The advanced list:
1) Lets you spot how many people are interested in you, and how many people you are interested in.
2) Lets you try to gauge if someone is a leecher or not.
3) From a productivity standpoint, doubles as a screensaver for many users. Neat to look at, but otherwise pointless.

Are you connected to a good section of the swarm?
Look at the main torrent screen:
    Connected to 213 peers with an average of 34.3% completed (total speed 2357kB/s)
    Connected to 26 seeds; also seeing 34.999 distributed copies.

This tells me: There are effectively 60 seeds, and the average client, of which there are many, has 1/3rd of the torrent. They are downloading at an average speed of around 10kB/s. I'd call that an acceptable dl speed for my needs, and it is only an average, I'lll probably dl faster most of the time (I've managed to be a bit over twice that speed most of the time, which is my capacity).

I would also like to see sorting... I was going to start a topic on it so I'm glad to see there's already one.
