- Users would like to be able to produce annotations that are visually closely coupled with actors. When an actor is dragged around the campus, if it has an associated annotation, this annotation moves alongside it. This does not require a graphical link (eg line or box) that groups the two, but this could be done. Another way to approach this would be mouseover "alt text" popups.

- Users want the ability to easily merge many different data sources into one. For example, in the reap terrestrial case study uses might want to merge a) data in differently formatted excel files and text files b) near-realtime data streams and c) data pulled from an archive. Users want this process to convert units if needs be.
