Description

A very important indicator of the health of a server in a grid is whether it will take new shares. A client node has enough information (or could record it) to know this. It should show somehow if a node is not taking shares (either if it says it won't or if it actually doesn't). The lack of this feature makes it almost impossible to assess if files can be uploaded without trying it.
