Create a "Before View Area" of your Power Sets when doing a Respec

I've always thought about this every time I would respec my toons. I would normally take a screen shot of my power tray and my power sets before I would respec so I knew what I had before so I would know how to slot them correctly. Normally, I would just take screen shot then use Photoshop to create a preview mode so I can recall what my previous power sets where.

My suggestion would be to maybe have something in game on your power set menu screen that would show what your previous powers were as you change them and slot them again. My biggest boo boo is sometimes I forget to add "such and such" power or maybe I didn't slot this power the way I had it before. If I commit to what I have, then I'm screwed until I can respec again. I quickly threw something together in Photoshop so you can kind of get the idea of what I am talking about. Have something that would display on the bottom of the screen so when you are picking your new powers, you know what you had previously. For sections that require more visibility, the Before Box of your Current Power Sets can have a scrolling feature that you can scroll down to see all your current power sets.

I would think something like this shouldn't be that hard to implement within the game as far as programming goes. I think this will also help with the premise of making CoX the enjoyable game we all came to love and play and why we still play this game. What do you guys think about this idea?

I usually use Mids for...well, everything these days.

That said? /Signed. Nice layout, nice suggestion.
