About point 1: it's a trivial problem that should be easy to fix.
About point 2, I remeber that there was a macro recorder that allowed to perform
test suites. I can't say much more since the demo is expired on my PC.
Point 3 is somewhat more complex.

In any case, I wouldn't be so drastic about the missing features: I think the
worst thing is the look the program opens with, i.e. the awful 3D board.

On the other side it comes at least with one nice feature that many other well
know programs don't have: the ability to connect to ICC/FICS.
