Online Check -- frequency needs to be configurable in options; enabled/disabled by button on toolbar; and on demand checking for a selection should be possible from shortcut menu.
Password Field -- reveal should be possible on a per password basis; it should be possible to enter a password without it being revealed.
Verified Column -- "Failed" is used to describe connection failures (closed ports, disabled services, and protocol negotiation failures) as well as password failures. This is too ambiguous.

Thanks for the suggestions. Online check is automatic and I haven't found a way to get the table to track online changes when the table is reordered, so I have to constantly check the status new whenever a change is made. The frequency is continuous and is as fast as can be. The thread priority is lower than the main thread, so it shouldn't cause a performance problem. Let me know if it does. I can turn it on and off, but I probably can't adjust much else for it right now.

Reveal is possible on a per password basis by clicking into the password field. Of course this brings up the problem of editing the field without revealing the password -- that isn't possible using the table view. I could probably just add a separate "new password" dialog, if you like, which would hide the password while you edit it.

I'll have to see if I can determine the difference between a connection failure and an incorrect password for the verified column. Not sure the API knows the difference (it's using an unmanaged API that's not 100% clear in documentation) but I might be able to add that.

Thanks for the suggestions. XS BAP needs a lot of work. I haven't had much time recently with work and RD Tabs. I need to get back into it!!!
