Thanks for all the suggestions.  Feel free to work on any that
interest you and send me the code.  I can't guess when I'll have time
to implement any of them myself; I'm having some serious health problems.

Your item (1)---moving the "flag dropped" messages---is already in the
latest patchlevel.

There is a workaround for the TwoMachines limitation you mentioned.
Pause the game, then use SavePosition, Reset, and LoadPosition.  This
leaves you in ForceMoves mode.  This is clunky, but it works.
