I might ad MultiPV for analysis. Both when using Infinite analysis in general,
as well as Deep Position Analysis in Chessprogram8, and when using some analysis
features in ChessAssitant 8, MPV may either represents a significant improvemnt
or it's neccesary.
Though, when analysing, the use of various engines is always a good idea.
