Comment (by gdt):

 When I set up storage servers, the WUI of the server is not accessible
 beyond localhost.  So having links to storage server web pages is at least
 for me a non-solution.   From a usability point of view, I want to see
 free space per server in the main server table at my local client WUI,.
 This would also enable using the current k/H/N values to find the
 available grid space - basically sort by free space and then number from 1
 to M, and find item H in that list, more or less.  That's wrong, of
 course, and the real free space depends on the packing algorithm, but it's
 a conservative indication.   Or perhaps show that as a lower bound and
 totalfree/(N/k) as the upper bound.
