654 - requires libdexter (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libdexter)
655 and the dxt-sysinfo plugin (svn only at the moment).
657 - dexter_client yes/no
658 - dexter_server yes/no
659 - dexter_config /path/to/libdexter/config (default: $HOME/.dexterrc)

675 immediately loses focus.
678 * Clarify LGPL license on timed_thread modules.

701 max_port_monitor_connections
704 * Added $entropy_avail, $entropy_poolsize and $entropy_bar
705 for the crypto freaks. Idea suggested by Perttu Luukko
