What reports would you like to see in DXLMagic?

The new DXLMagic UI is making progress. One of the features I'm working on are reports included into the JAR file, so you can pick them from the internal list easily. I'm planning to have reports for @Formula, Fields, HideWhen and actions. What reports would you like to see in that list?

Cool. I love this whole concept. The things that occur to me are maintenance (or lack thereof) issues: show me every formula that uses a given view (or database), so I don't delete the one that is used in that really important dbLookup; show me views that aren't used in *any* formulas; show me any lookups that use "nocache" (and what about ones that use "nocache" against views that update infrequently...); lookups that do the evil nested lookup error check "technique"; or every use of the deprecated (or soon to be?) techniques for address book lookups, especially hard-coded "names.nsf" references. You get the idea - I'm sure you have plenty of similar examples, so I doubt you're surprised by any of these.
