I have several ideas about how to improve analysis features:

1) Allow arbitrarily long opening books and/or tournaments from arbitrary
starting positions (tournament style shootouts, not just engine vs itself
shootouts).
2) Allow "run the gauntlet" shootouts where the side running the guantlet always
gets the same color instead of alternating.
3) Allow more sophisticated game searches
  a) for positions with a certain piece configuration regardless of where it
occurs on the board and
  2) material imbalances ala Chess Assistant
4) Fix the winboard adapter so it doesn't mess up winboard programs.
5) Allow import/export analysis of EPD files
6) Allow multiple instances of the same engine to kibitz simultaneously (locked
on different positions).
7) Allow multiple instances of the same engine to play in tournaments, each with
different engine parameters.
