Something I'd like to see with the trade agreements (on both sides) is a list of things that you do NOT want. Stuff that you have too much of, and will pay less for.
For example, say I don't want the humans to bother bringing me cloth. I need, say, wood or iron more. I want to be able to designate cloth as being worth less. Maybe make the slider start in the middle at 100% now, and let you go down to 50% as well as up to 200%.
Oh, and it'd be nice to be able to select an entire category. For example, I don't care WHAT type of wood you bring me most of the time. I just need wood to fuel the forges and make beds.
On that same note, I'd like to be able to select an entire category for trade during the actual trade session. Say, I know that I want ALL of the wood the humans brought, I'd like a select all by type. Maybe have the trade menu start off collapsed up to high levels, kind of like the stock screen. That way you can designate all of the crafts you're trading for trade at once without having to hit every single stupid item in the bin. (I don't like to trade bins away, so I don't want to just select the bin). Especially if you have a mix of say, clothing, in the bins with the mugs and crowns you're selling.
This would save me a lot of keystrokes, as I usually want all of the wood, metal, and stone the dwarven caravans bring me and I'd rather not have to select everything individually.
