  My favoured solution would be feedback rating only calculated on the last 12months
transactions, with the exception of NPB/NSS which I feel should be on permanent
record.

I feel the same way: any feedback (meaning negative, neutral & positive) should
have an expiration date. E.g. last 24 months. I would suggest to take the period
long enough (longer as 12 months). That way when a seller takes some time off
(or has other priorities in his life), it won't have a big effect.
That way, it's a continuous evaluation. Sellers that goofed up in the past
have a horizon for a clean slate and sellers with super positive evaluations
in the past will still be motivated to keep up their good efforts to maintain
their scores.

So my suggestion could be:
* display an absolute numbers of number of sales in all history, to indicate
the seniority of the seller
* a relative number (% satisfaction) of all positive feedback orders vs total
orders, but limited to the orders of the last 24 months
* NPB/NSS should indeed be sticky (or at least for a really long time, e.g. for
48 months)

I don't know how hard what I'm asking for is, but I've had some fun
today tracking down "undetermined" variants in sets that I have from childhood.
I'm pretty close to mining it as far as I can go, but I would certainly
consider parting out some sets from eBay with the added interest in finding the
variants. Could we have a tool that would just identify a list of sets that
contain a piece of undetermined variant?

OK, this is fixed now. I have tested it on a couple of item types and the form
no longer erases the category when a flag is triggered. Please let us know if
something still needs adjustment.

Also deployed at this time, when conducting an Advanced Catalog Search and using
the additional button pane, upon reversing back to the page after viewing search
results (presumably to tweak a setting) the additional pane will remain in place.

I know these seem little changes, but it would be great if all that is done was
added to the Roadmap: https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2453

I like to see this site improving and also it would show everyone that a lot
of work is being done. Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion! We have made dozens of these little improvements over
the last few months and it would undoubtedly encourage people to hear about them.
