Composable detailed view

There is and will be more and more information in details so “all at once” model can’t work well any more. I really like select/compose functionality of menu we came up with.

Hide the rest function:

We show all information on one page so you can compare things without switching, but after you extend few details the rest of domains might stand in your way, Hide the rest solves this.

A touch of history :

Core for historic view and changes of site parameter is in it’s place now. It shows only on external data details now but this is just a start.

Filters:

Besides views that show certain group of data of currently selected websites we have filters now. Filters determine which websites to show and in what order. Example is Expiring domains. More filters will be added.

Screen captures:

A new capture bot was added to the system. Currently it captures the website screen shots. We figured this will be to beneficial to give general overview of the situation on the websites for users that have man of them.

All changes were core changes. We implemented them carefully and lightly, only doing the minimal partial representation of them. We want them to sink into our minds with usage and give us more complete idea how to do the whole interface without screwing it all up.
