suggested improvements (?)

Firstly I'd like to say thanks for this great program (I gave it 4/5 on gensoft http://www.gensoftreviews.com/?p=305#reviews)
Whilst I was checking out other family tree software I noticed a couple of features that would be nice to have in K&K:
1) In addition to the trackball to scroll the chart, how about pressing spacebar and dragging the mouse (Family Historian does this)
2) A gedcom export option to export only deceased individuals, or least blank out all the details of living individuals (Family Tree Builder has this option).
(maybe these are possible and I havent stumbled across how to do it....)
I was also going to suggest that there needs to be a way to highlight a full "bow tie" bloodline (so that you set it to a layer or export to gedcom) but recently I noticed that with a right click on the background you can highlight all ancestor families, then press shift (to combine selections), another right click on the background and select descendant families. Perfect !
